Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano released the fiscal year 2011 grant guidance and application kits for 12 U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) grant programs totaling $2.1 billion to assist states, urban areas, tribal and territorial governments, nonprofit agencies and the private sector in strengthening the nation’s ability to prevent, protect, respond to and recover from terrorist attacks, major disasters and other emergencies. In fiscal 2011, DHS grants were reduced by $780 million from the fiscal 2010 enacted level, nearly one-quarter of fiscal 2010 DHS grant funding.
