Homeland Security - Roles, Responsibilities, and Jurisdictions

Brought to you by The American Public Safety Training Institute (TAPSTI) www.tapsti.org, this 2-hour session will review the work of Mark Sauter and James Carafano and their excellent textbook entitled “Homeland Security” (2012, 2nd ed.). This seminar addresses the “New Normal” within Homeland Security, what our concept is, and then we trickle down from the federal government through the maze of agencies to the local level. Once that understanding has been reached, we examine theories of security to fully grasp the mission at hand. We take a look at strategy, assess what our National Strategy is, and then take a look at some analytical tools to help us better understand how we are living up to our expectations.
