    Summary

    SHSP supports the implementation of State Homeland Security Strategies to address the identified planning, organization, equipment, training, and exercise needs to prevent, protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from acts of terrorism and other catastrophic events. Per federal grant guidance, activities implemented under SHSP must support terrorism preparedness by building or enhancing capabilities that relate to the prevention of, protection from, mitigation of, response to, and recovery from terrorism in order to be considered eligible. However, many capabilities which support terrorism preparedness simultaneously support preparedness for other hazards. Grantees must demonstrate this dual-use quality for any activities implemented under this program that are not explicitly focused on terrorism preparedness.

    LE-SHSP funding is provided to the eight (8) identified Homeland Security Regions in Ohio to support the Law Enforcement priorities/requirements for activities dedicated towards law enforcement terrorism prevention-oriented planning, organization, training, exercise, and equipment activities (LETPA).

    This program will support the following federal priorities:

    • Priority One: Implementation of PPD-8 and the Whole Community Approach to Security and Emergency Management
    • Priority Two: Building and Sustaining Law Enforcement Terrorism Prevention Capabilities
    • Priority Three: Maturation and Enhancement of State and Major Urban Area Fusion Centers

    DHS grant funds may only be used for the purpose set forth in the grant, and must be consistent with the statutory authority for the award. Grant funds may not be used for matching funds for other Federal grants/cooperative agreements, lobbying, or intervention in Federal regulatory or adjudicatory proceedings. In addition, Federal funds may not be used to sue the Federal government or any other government entity.
