U.S. Department of Homeland Security Office for Civil Rights and Civil Liberties Incident Community Coordination Team (ICCT) Conference Call

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security Office for Civil Rights and Civil Liberties (DHS CRCL) is activating its Incident Community Coordination Team (ICCT) national conference call mechanism on Monday, May 16 2022, at 4:00pm ET to discuss the mass shooting in Buffalo and ongoing concerns with racially or ethnically-motivated violent extremism.

DHS CRCL has heard from many of you who have expressed concerns and requested information and points of contact as a result of this incident. We would like to emphasize that if members of your community have been or may be the targets of possible threats or violence, you should contact your local police department immediately.

The ICCT is the only tool of its kind available for rapid two-way communication between the federal government and impacted communities in the aftermath of a homeland security incident or emergency. The ICCT national call provides timely information to communities and allows them to provide feedback to senior government officials. Senior leadership from DHS and other federal agencies will join us for the call. Information for the ICCT call is below:
