Title: Preparing for terrorism
Description: "Before September 11, 2001, terrorism represented a relatively new concern on the spectrum of disaster management issues, but domestic preparedness now has to be a critical part of any state's overall disaster management planning. This paper addresses critical issues for elected officials - as well as public managers and concerned citizens - to consider as a starting point to thinking about domestic preparedness. It highlights components of a comprehensive preparedness strategy and outlines state and local government priorities for change."--P. 1.
