Feature Article: "Protecting
our Borders"
The reality is that world events have changed
and our country like other warring nations must remain on some
level of "alert." There is no doubt that biological,
chemical, nuclear, or other threats are possible at any given
moment. While we cannot be expected to safeguard our families
against every pending disaster, we can devise plans to make our
lives a bit easier during an emergency crisis.
Learn how to safeguard your family in the
event of an emergency!
The events of September 11, 2001, forever
changed the way America functions as a democratic nation. The
Homeland Security Act of 2002 formally established the Department
of Homeland Security to safeguard our country against acts of
terrorism and to create a national infrastructure that will better
protect our families, cities, national treasures, and way of
living. On these pages you will find information to keep you
and your family aware of current homeland security issues.
