Book excerpt: Six years after its creation, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) undertook the first Quadrennial Homeland Security Review (QHSR), a top-to-bottom review that will inform the homeland security policy for the next four years. Recognizing the need to inform this review with the input of the thousands of homeland security stakeholders nationwide, DHS partnered with the National Academy to host a series of online collaborative dialogues to solicit stakeholder feedback on the missions, goals, and priorities of DHS. This after-action report provides valuable lessons in conducting stakeholder outreach on an unprecedented scale, as well as recommendations for DHS to continue engaging its vast network of stakeholders in shaping policy. The feedback received in these Dialogues was incorporated into the Quadrennial Homeland Security Review, which DHS submitted to Congress in early 2010.
