Homeland Security and Homeland Defense

In your readings you have been provided a variety of definitions for the term homeland security. Additionally, the national strategies and readings have talked to the difference between homeland security and homeland defense.

Drawing upon your readings and other class materials, craft two columns; one labeled Homeland Security and the other Homeland Defense. Under the headers of each column list those missions, tasks, duties, responsibilities, operations, etc. which are identified from the national policies, strategies and readings. Some tasks may be listed under both columns. Where this occurs, be sure to identify if there is any element of that item that is specific to either homeland security or homeland defense. Lastly, drawing upon the list you developed, provide a definition of homeland security.

Critical infrastructure

Critical infrastructure is defined in the National Infrastructure Protection Plan as Systems and assets, whether physical or virtual, so vital that the incapacity or destruction of such may have a debilitating impact on the security, economy, public health or safety, environment, or any combination of these matters, across any Federal, State, regional, territorial, or local jurisdiction (DHS, 2009, p. 109). From this definition, one can reasonably presume that protection of these assets is vital to the well-being of the United States and as such is an essential element of homeland security. Drawing upon the readings provide your assessment of the capability of the nations infrastructure protection program to ensure the survivability of its critical infrastructure.

Applicable Psychotherapy Research

Applying Current Literature to Clinical Practice–
Psychiatric mental health nursing practice is one of the newest disciplines to be licensed to provide
psychotherapy as such, the majority of psychotherapy research is centered on other disciplines such as
psychology, social work, marriage/family therapy, art therapy, psychiatry, and mental health counseling. This
makes it essential for you to be able to translate current literature from other disciplines into your own clinical
practice. For this Assignment, you practice this skill by examining literature on group work and group therapy
and considering its applicability to your own clients.
The Assignment:
In a 5- to 10-slide PowerPoint presentation, address the following:
• Provide an overview of the article you selected, including answers to the following questions:

o What type of group was discussed?
o Who were the participants in the group? Why were they selected?
o What was the setting of the group?
o How often did the group meet?
o What was the duration of the group therapy?
o What curative factors might be important for this group and why?
o What “exclusion criteria” did the authors mention?
• Explain the findings/outcomes of the study in the article. Include whether this will translate into practice with
your own client groups. If so, how? If not, why?
• Explain whether the limitations of the study might impact your ability to use the findings/outcomes presented
in the article.
