What Does DHS Do?
What Does DHS Do?
Helping When Disaster Strikes
Whether it’s a hurricane, an earthquake, a flood, or a terrorist attack—when an emergency happens DHS is there, working side-by-side with local leaders and residents to help communities respond and recover.
Protecting U.S. Borders
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) protects our country’s borders and manages the flow of people and products into and out of the United States. Here are some of the ways they do this.
Stopping Terrorism and Homeland Security Threats
A big part of the DHS mission is to stop terrorists from attacking us before they can start. DHS has some very smart people working behind the scenes to make sure we stay two steps ahead of the terrorists.
Protecting Our Economy
The economy is made up of buyers and sellers and includes all the things that we make in our factories and sell to other countries, and the things we buy from other countries.
