CALUMS Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management Paper For the first integration paper, I have provided you with two readings in addition to the readings in module 1. The first document is the Homeland Security Advisory Council’s (HSAC) September 11, 2008, report entitled The Top Ten Challenges Facing the Next Secretary of Homeland Security, while dated I would maintain that it is still valid for the current Secretary. As would be expected it is a primarily internally focused document dealing with the inner workings of the Department of Homeland Security. The Second document provided is the US Department of Homeland Security Strategic Plan 2000-2024, which has both an external but also an internal focus. For this integration paper let’s focus on the following questions.

In light of the topics we have covered in this module, how well do these documents really address the current challenges we face within homeland security and emergency management? Describe some examples.
Does the HSAC’s goals and recommendations posture the Department to adequately address the challenges presented in the present day?
Does the guidance provided in the HS strategy for 2020-2024 give the necessary focus to DHS and its subordinate organizations to deal with the threats and issues we have covered in this model? Why? Or Why not?
Even though these documents are primarily intended for DHS and components, do they provide influence for state and local agencies as well? How? What about the private sector? Give some examples.
Finally, is there anything missing that should have been included?

Your paper should generally be about 4-6 pages in length (absolute max)

Similarity must be less than 25%！！！

You should use proper APA style and format for your paper (there is a sample paper in the writing and research presentation folder)
I have provided the basic sources to use for this project, but you may use others if you desire

You must cite the sources for your information. THE DHS STRATEGIC PLAN
Fiscal Years 2020-2024
ONE WORLD TRADE CENTER
Colleagues:
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s highest priority is to protect the American people
from threats to their security. The DHS Strategic Plan for Fiscal Years (FY) 2020-2024 establishes
a clear strategic vision that achieves and advances our Department’s essential mission by placing
American safety and security first.
The Nation faces a complex threat landscape with enemies and adversaries who are constantly
evolving. Accordingly, the Department will build on the considerable progress since its formation
and lead homeland security initiatives across this Nation and the globe that meet the threats of
today and the future. The Department’s dedicated operators and personnel will safeguard against
threats both foreign and domestic, respond to national emergencies and contingencies, and
preserve the Nation’s prosperity and economic security.
Pursuant to the Government Performance and Results (GPRA) Act of 1993, as amended by the
GPRA Modernization Act of 2010, I am pleased to present this DHS Strategic Plan for FY 20202024.
Sincerely,
Kevin K. McAleenan
Acting Secretary, U.S. Department of Homeland Security

THE 2020-2024 DHS STRATEGIC PLAN
R ELENTLESS R ESILIENCE
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and its homeland security mission are born
from the commitment and resolve of Americans across the United States in the wake of the
September 11th attacks. In those darkest hours, we witnessed true heroism, self-sacrifice, and
unified resolve against evil. We rallied together for our common defense, and we pledged to stand
united against the threats attacking our great Nation, fellow Americans, and way of life. Together,
we are committed to relentless resilience, striving to prevent future attacks against the United
States and our allies, responding decisively to natural and manmade disasters, and advancing
American prosperity and economic security long into the future.
In the many years since the September 11th attacks, the Department has marshaled this collective
vision to face new and emerging threats against the Homeland. To do so, we are instilling a “culture
of relentless resilience” across the United States to harden security for the threats on the horizon,
withstand attacks, and rapidly recover. We are raising security baselines across the world,
addressing systemic risks, and building redundancies for critical lifelines that enable our prosperity
and way of life. Perhaps most importantly, we are forging partnerships to strengthen public,
private, and international cooperation and crowd-sourcing solutions that outpace the intentions of
our adversaries.
As the complex threat environment continues to evolve and loom, the Department will embody
the relentless resilience of the American people to ensure a safe, secure, and prosperous Homeland.

S COPE
AND
P URPOSE
OF THE
S TRATEGIC P LAN
The DHS Strategic Plan comprehensively reflects the Department’s
complex mission. Every day, each operator and employee across the
Department advances the strategic goals and objectives contained
herein to keep Americans safe, secure, and resilient. The DHS
Strategic Plan establishes a common framework to analyze
and inform the Department’s management decisions,
including strategic guidance, operational requirements,
budget formulation, annual performance reporting, and
mission execution.
Along with the DHS Strategic Plan, DHS also conducts
the Quadrennial Homeland Security Review, which
identifies strategic homeland security priorities based
on extensive analysis and stakeholder engagement.
Together, these documents inform internal operations
and our interactions with Congress, interagency
counterparts, and the American public.
A BOUT
THE
D EPARTMENT
From the ashes of the September 11th terrorist attacks,
Congress established DHS in 2003 as a new Cabinet-level
agency to unite the Nation’s approach to homeland security.
DHS combined functions of 22 different federal departments
and agencies with broad responsibilities that collectively
prevent attacks, mitigate threats, respond to national emergencies,
preserve economic security, and preserve legacy agency functions.
In the years since its formation, DHS has matured considerably to
improve integration across its Headquarters Offices and Operational
Components. As we move forward, it is imperative for DHS to continue
strengthening the execution of its Headquarters’ responsibilities by centralizing and
coordinating the Department’s many functions and ensuring that the whole is greater than
the sum of its parts.

Guiding Principles:
Champion “Relentless Resilience” for All Threats and Hazards: DHS will remain resolute
against today’s threats and hazards by keeping pace with our adversaries and preparing for those
of tomorrow by identifying and confronting systemic risk, ensuring the Nation’s citizens remain
resilient, building redundancy and resilience into community lifelines, and raising the baseline of
our security across the board—and across the world.
Reduce the Nation’s Risk to Homeland Security Dangers: DHS will mitigate risks to the
Homeland by interdicting threats, hardening assets to eliminate vulnerabilities, and enhancing
rapid recovery efforts to reduce potential consequences from physical attacks, natural disasters,
and cyber incidents.
Promote Citizen Engagement and Strengthen and Expand Trusted Partnerships: Homeland
security is a whole-of-society endeavor, from every federal department and agency to every
American across this Nation. We will work together and empower partners to leverage national
capacity and capabilities, improve training exercises, and develop contingency plans that make
America safe, secure, and resilient against all threats and all hazards.
Uphold Privacy, Transparency, Civil Rights, and Civil Liberties: DHS will continue to
implement safeguards for privacy, transparency, civil rights, and civil liberties when developing
and adopting policies and throughout the performance of its mission to ensure that homeland
security programs uphold privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties.
Ensure Mission-Driven Management and Integration: As a unified Department, DHS will
leverage the collective capabilities of its operational Components to identify opportunities for
jointness and integration. Through a comprehensive and collaborative approach, DHS will ensure
its operators and employees have the necessary tools, resources, and authorities to execute its
mission.

The Department’s complex homeland security mission requires close coordination and
collaboration across the Operational Components to achieve the strategic goals and execute the
strategic objectives within the DHS Strategic Plan. Similarly, DHS’s Support Components and
Headquarters Offices are an essential part of operational success, integrating intelligence, policies,
research and development, management and administrative functions, training, legal counsel,
external affairs, and leadership guidance to enable Operational Components. This unified approach
to the homeland security mission embraces the tenets of the Homeland Security Act of 2002, which
founded the Department, and advances our mission collectively.

One of the Department’s top priorities is to resolutely protect Americans from terrorism and other
homeland security threats by preventing nation-states and their proxies, transnational criminal
organizations, and groups or individuals from engaging in terrorist or criminal acts that threaten
the Homeland. In recent years, terrorists and criminals have increasingly adopted new techniques
and advanced tactics in an effort to circumvent homeland security and threaten the safety, security,
and prosperity of the American public and our allies. The rapidly evolving threat environment
demands a proactive response by DHS and its partners to identify, detect, and prevent attacks
against the United States.
