HOMELAND SECURITY RESPONSE GUIDES
Recommended Emergency Action Steps

The City of Cleveland has adopted the Homeland Security Advisory System (HSAS) as means to disseminate information regarding the risk of terrorist acts to our community and our citizens.

The HSAS system was developed by the U.S. Office of Homeland Security to designate the perceived level of risk of terrorist acts being perpetrated on American soil. The system is broken into five different levels, each identified by a separate color. The chart below outlines the five different color levels.

Individuals and business should be prepared to take action based on the current HSAS level. Listed below are links to The American Red Cross web sites that can provide actions to be taken at each level for different populations.
