• <strong>Homeland</strong> <strong>Security</strong> Task Force on State, Tribal, County<br />

and City Grant Funding: Created to assist and advise DHS on<br />

problem areas and viable solutions to allocation <strong>of</strong> preparedness<br />

funding to State, Tribal, County and City governments.<br />

• <strong>Homeland</strong> <strong>Security</strong> Information Network: Built upon the<br />

system known as JRIES, the department is expanding its computer<br />

based counter terrorism communications network to all 50 states, 5<br />

territories, Washington D.C. and 50 other major urban areas. This<br />

effort will significantly strengthen the two-way flow <strong>of</strong> real time threat<br />

information from the Sensitive-but-Unclassified level to the Secret<br />

levels to state, tribal, local and private sector partners.<br />
