The California Governor's Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) is responsible for designing and
implementing homeland security initiatives and ensuring that the state is ready to protect lives and property by
effectively preparing for, preventing, responding to, and recovering from all threats, crimes, hazards, and
emergencies. To help fulfill this mission, Cal OES administers a pass-through program of federal homeland
security grant funds to local public agencies through California.
This program is critical to maintaining the quality and quantity of homeland security initiative programs provided
within the County. The funding will allow for enhanced coordination and communication among the disciplines to
maximize protective actions, emergency preparedness, and the effective response to emergencies and disasters.
The total grant program allocation provided to the County by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and
sub-granted through the State of California is $1,475,537.
