About The Radiological Threat Awareness Coalition
Leadership • Advisory Board • Membership • Contact Us
The Radiological Threat Awareness Coalition (R-TAC)
was established to increase awareness and preparedness in this country
against a possible radiological attack such as a “dirty bomb.”
Since the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on our country, Americans
have been keenly aware of the dangers of weapons of mass destruction falling
in the wrong hands. Major initiatives have been implemented to prevent
chemical, biological and nuclear attacks. But despite this trend, there
has not been enough of a concerted effort focused on the threat of a radiological
attack such as a “dirty bomb.”
R-TAC seeks to prepare, protect, and prevent a radiological disaster in
our country by:
· Educating the public about radiological threats and ways to protect
against a possible attack.
· Supporting federal and state level efforts to better prepare
our nation against radiological threats.
· Calling for adequate funding of our nation’s first responders
to defend against radiological attacks.
