About IL-HSAC

The Illinois Homeland Security Advisory Council (IL-HSAC) was created by Executive Order 2023-3 on April 18, 2023.  It replaced the long-standing Illinois Terrorism Task Force (ITTF), which was created by an Executive Order in 2000.

The membership of the IL-HSAC is widely varied.  It encompasses 70 organizations – both public and private – comprising of over 150 individuals.  Each member organization is assigned to at least one of nine sub-committees:

• Law Enforcement Mutual Aid
• Fire Services Mutual Aid
• Emergency Management
• Public Health
• Critical Infrastructure
• Prevention
• Cybersecurity
• Communications
• Urban Area

The committees meet regularly throughout the year.  The chairs of these committees meet monthly.  The full IL-HSAC meets quarterly.
