The FY 2004 Grant Program funds are provided to prevent, deter, respond to and recover from threats and acts of terrorism. The FY 2004 funds are provided and administered in three programs State Homeland Security Program, Law Enforcement Terrorism Prevention Program and Citizen Corps Program. The three programs are integrated to better facilitate the organization and coordination. This grant is a result of congressional funding for the purchase of specialized equipment to enhance the capability of state and county agencies to prevent and respond to incidents of terrorism involving the use of chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear or explosive (CBRNE) weapons. The law enforcement terrorism prevention funds enhance capabilities for detecting, deterring, disrupting, and preventing acts of terrorism through information sharing and intelligence gathering, target hardening to reduce vulnerability and intervention activities to interdict terrorists before they can execute. The Citizen Corps Program funds will be used to support Citizen Corps Councils with planning, outreach, training and management of Citizen Corps programs and activities.
