In order to bring together critical infrastructure and key resources (CI/KR) protection experts from the private sector and all levels of government, the Department of Homeland Security has established the State, Local, Tribal, and Territorial Government Coordinating Council (SLTTGCC).

The SLTTGCC functions as a forum for State, local, tribal, and territorial government representatives to engage with the Federal government and the CI/KR owners and operators within the Sector Partnership Framework, to achieve the homeland security mission of protecting the Nation's critical infrastructure.
