Q: Is the ASIP grant still open in 2026?

Yes. ASIP applications are processed in the order they are received and funding stays open until the program budget is spent, so applying early matters. The temporary expansion covering Islamic and Jewish faith-based alternative schools and Arabic bilingual programs accepts applications until December 31, 2026. Program details are set by the Government of Alberta and may change.

The Alberta Security Infrastructure Program (ASIP) helps nonprofits, faith communities and schools fund security upgrades. As a local installer, Loch Security can assess your site and provide the quotes your application needs.

Who qualifies

Eligible organizations

To apply you must be a registered not-for-profit or charity in good standing, or one of:

Places of worship

Community centres for an identifiable group
Cemeteries, shelters and ceremonial facilities serving an identifiable group

Not eligible: residential dwellings, individuals, for-profit businesses, daycares, municipalities, police services, crown corporations and publicly funded institutions.

Two ways to apply

There are two streams: a cost-recovery grant reimbursing eligible expenses incurred since June 1, 2021, and a regular grant for new assessments, equipment and training — which requires itemized quotes with your application.

That’s exactly where we come in: a free on-site assessment and an application-ready, itemized quote for the security work. The ASIP team confirms receipt of your application within 5 business days.
