Grant Coordination > 2009 Grant Regional Preparedness Advisory Committee (RPAC) Stakeholder Meetings
The Department of Homeland Security has released the 2009 grant guidance. While this includes grants for most of the DHS programs, the 2009 Grant RPAC Stakeholder meetings will focus on the gaps to be addressed through the State Homeland Security Grant Program.
Each locality is encouraged to send two or three representatives for the different preparedness needs of the locality. To attend an RPAC meeting, you must register through this site (see the link in the What’s New box).
The meeting dates and times are below and in the registration form. You will receive a confirmation email with the location details and directions.
