Provides funding to nonprofit organizations to implement smart technology and artificial intelligence systems to enhance security infrastructure.
This bill establishes the New Jersey Equitable Nonprofit Security and Innovation Grant Program, providing funding to 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations (including places of worship) to implement smart technology and artificial intelligence systems for security improvements. It allocates up to $25,000 per nonprofit for smart technology (like motion sensors) and up to $100,000 for AI systems (such as threat-detection tools), prioritizing organizations serving at-risk communities, communities of color, and collaborative or interdisciplinary groups. Recipients must report on security enhancements, community engagement initiatives, and AI system assessments to prevent bias, while the program requires $14 million annually in state funding and includes mandatory technical support and annual impact evaluations.
