The UASI program in Minnesota aims to enhance the security and resilience of high-risk urban areas by building, sustaining, and improving capabilities to prevent, prepare for, protect against, and respond to acts of terrorism.
The program focuses on addressing identified security gaps, increasing interagency coordination, and strengthening critical infrastructure protection.
Recipients are required to allocate at least 30% of their UASI funds to National Priority Areas, including enhancing protection of soft targets and crowded places, supporting Homeland Security Task Forces and fusion centers, enhancing cybersecurity, enhancing election security, and supporting border crisis response and enforcement.
