Taking Initiative

APTS is pleased to offer members in good standing the opportunity to join the Homeland Security Coalition. This service provides a variety of specific benefits available only to coalition members. The coalition also supports targeted advocacy to ensure public television stations can participate fully in exclusive funding streams for Homeland Security. A large element of this advocacy involves demonstrating for policy makers and funders how public television stations' digital infrastructure provides the pipeline for emergency communications before, during and after a crisis, as well as a cost-effective means of training first responders.
