Domestic and Homegrown Violent Extremism Awareness
Violent extremism poses a significant threat to the safety and security of the United States, involving both domestic and homegrown violent extremists. These groups recruit individuals to carry out attacks on U.S. citizens and interests, both domestically and abroad. Extremists can be U.S.-born citizens or individuals legally residing in the country, living in proximity to the communities they target. Awareness of these groups, identifying suspicious behavior, and fostering collaboration between citizens and law enforcement are critical to countering their activities. However, law enforcement must balance these efforts with the protection of civil rights. This interactive online course explores the nature of domestic and homegrown violent extremism, offering strategies to identify, prevent, and respond to these threats through community engagement and lawful practices.
