U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s first ever Private Sector Resources Catalog

(CBP)

I am pleased to announce today the release of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s first ever Private Sector Resources catalog.

The DHS Private Sector Resources Catalog allows our private sector partners to access to the resources the Department needs to help keep our country secure. Targeted specifically towards our private sector partners, this document collects the training, publications, guidance, alerts, newsletters, programs, and services available to the private sector across the department. Recognizing the diversity of the available resources as well as the continually evolving work of the department, this catalog will be updated regularly to publicize new resources and to increase private sector awareness.

You may download the catalog by visiting http://www.dhs.gov/xabout/gc_1273165166442.shtm. We encourage you to pass this message along to your colleagues, partners, and member organizations and have included a short sample newsletter item for your website, blogs, list serve and publications.

As you may be aware, DHS the Private Sector Office (PSO) coordinates active engagement between DHS and the private sector. PSO is always available to provide assistance or address your comments, questions, issues and concerns and can be reached at private.sector@dhs.gov, (202) 282-8484.

Sincerely,
Kimberly Marsho
