Description:
The Homeland Security Commercial Equipment Direct Assistance Program (CEDAP) is operated by the DHS Office of State and Local Government Coordination & Preparedness (SLGCP) to assist smaller communities in acquiring and using commercially available equipment to prevent, deter, and respond to terrorist attacks, as identified in state homeland security strategies. This competitive program is a direct assistance program, not a grant program, and SLGCP will provide the equipment and technical assistance directly to the selected jurisdictions. The program includes, but is not limited to, interoperable communications equipment, defensive protective equipment for first responders, and vulnerability assessment equipment appropriate to rural jurisdictions.
