Module 2 – Case
OVERVIEW OF HOMELAND SECURITY-RELATED GOVERNMENTAL AND
NON-GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS (NGO)
Assignment Overview
The American Red Cross, one of the most widely known NGOs, responds to approximately 70,000
disasters of varying types and severity every year in the U.S., under the direction of the National Disaster
Operations Center in Washington, D.C. (RedCross.org). There is no question that the Red Cross provides
a vital service to the American public and has saved tens of thousands of lives, in addition to providing
myriad other critical short-term services such as temporary shelters, food, and medical care.
Using the American NGOs as our case study, we shall examine the role and function of an NGO in man-
made events that directly impacted homeland security. Given the trans-regional nature of migration, the
Red Cross and other NGOs draw on their presence all along U.S. borders to contribute to the
humanitarian response and alleviate the suffering of vulnerable migrant people. In so doing, we can more
concretely understand how an NGO can play a vital role in homeland security, supplementing the efforts of
the federal government, and often before the government can establish a functional, effective relief
system
For this case study, we shall explore the NGOs response to narco-violence, terrorist threats, and large
migrations massing on the U.S. and Mexico borders.
