Review the:Introduction to Homeland Security Principles of All-Hazards Risk Management,Fifth Edition by Jane A. Bullock, George D. Haddow,Damon P. Coppola
Discussing any government program or agency requires a list of acronyms and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is no exception to this rule.
In a well-written paper, briefly describe the history and formation of the DHS. Be sure to discuss, at a minimum, the agencies and concepts designated by following acronyms: QHSR, HSE, NRF, NIMS, ICS, and UC. Explain what each means. This should be done in a logical sequence where one acronym builds upon or relates to another. There is a top down logical flow to these acronyms. Within each description, be sure to highlight and discuss core elements or requirements that each acronym calls for or offers.
Response should be 2 to 3 pages in length and formatted to CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA Requirements. Cite at least two credible outside sources for support. The CSU-Global Library is a great place to find these sources.
