Modeled on the longstanding Aspen Strategy Group, a bipartisan group of foreign policy experts, the Aspen Homeland Security Group is a bipartisan group of homeland security and counterterrorism experts whom the program periodically convenes in Washington, DC and at our Aspen campus to discuss issues in depth and make recommendations to policymakers. The Aspen Homeland Security Group is co- chaired by former Secretary of Homeland Security Michael Chertoff and former Congresswoman Jane Harman.

The Group’s launch will feature a discussion between Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano and the Group’s co-chairs, Harman and Chertoff, moderated by The Washington Post’s David Ignatius.
