Listed below are some of the state partners:

Delaware State Police- Delaware State Police established a toll-free anti-terrorism tip line in order for Delaware to have ONE telephone number for the citizens to report suspicious activity possibly related to terrorism. As a part of National Preparedness Month, the Delaware State Police developed and implemented an aggressive marketing campaign. The goal of the promotion campaign was to make the toll free number as well know to as many Delaware citizens as possible before the next state, national or international event occurs.

This initiative was led by our Secretary of Safety and Homeland Security, in partnership with the Delaware Emergency Management Agency and the State Citizen Corps Council.

Through the partnership with the State Citizen Corps Council, the Delaware State Police were successful in implementing their anti-Terrorism campaign. All of the Marketing material (bumper stickers, billboards etc) now bears the Citizen Corps Logo. Additionally a film on the 7 Signs of Terrorism is available to the local Citizen Corps Councils and has been integrated into the CERT training program.
