Welcome to the Bay Area SUASI Dispatch, the monthly electronic newsletter of the Bay Area Super Urban Area Security Initiative (SUASI). The newsletter complements our website, www.bayareasuasi.org, as an additional information and outreach tool to support our mission: to enhance regional capability through regional collaboration.
 
It enables us to link you directly to the website for agendas, minutes and workgroup documents; keep you informed of SUASI milestones; share project findings as they become available; increase the level of participation in SUASI workgroups; and spotlight program successes. Project updates and findings are a regular feature. Also, I use this space each month to report to you on the state of the Bay Area SUASI.
 
In addition to keeping you informed through this e-newsletter, I want to encourage all of you with a role in emergency planning or response to become active in the work of the program. Learn how and why in the article in this issue entitled
Get Involved.
 
We hope that you enjoy the Bay Area SUASI Dispatch and share it with your colleagues. Feel free to forward this issue using the Tell A Friend link at the bottom of this page.
