## What the grant funds

Since the September 11th attacks, terrorist threats to the United States have evolved and diversified but remain dynamic and volatile. The most significant terrorist threat currently facing the homeland comes from lone offenders and small groups of individuals who commit acts of violence. They are motivated by a broad range of violent racial, ethnic, political, religious, anti-government, societal, or personal ideological beliefs and grievances. Pandemic‑related stressors also have contributed to increased societal strains and tensions, including grievances over public health measures and perceived government restrictions. Violent extremists¿ motivations and grievances are often influenced and exacerbated by conspiracy theories online in the form of misinformation, disinformation, and malinformation. Many violent extremists exploit online platforms to spread hate, sow discord and division, and promote narratives to encourage violence. Domestic violent extremists (DVEs) represent the most persistent terrorism-related threat facing the United States. Among DVEs, racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists, including white supremacists, likely will remain the most lethal DVE threats in the United States. Since 2020, however, we have also seen a significant increase in anti-government and anti-authority violent extremism, particularly from militia violent extremists, which typically target law enforcement, elected officials, and government personnel and facilities. Foreign terrorist organizations still have the intent to carry out attacks in the United States or inspire others, known as Homegrown Violent Extremists (HVEs), to do so, both within and from beyond our borders. Al-Qa¿ida and ISIS have been diminished by longstanding pressure, but their networks and affiliates have diffused and persisted, often in areas of enduring conflict or lacking governance. Terrorism and targeted violence have harmful effects on our communities. Preventing acts of terrorism and targeted violence requires a whole of society approach and is part of Goal 1 of the DHS Strategic Plan. The DHS Targeted Violence and Terrorism Prevention (TVTP) Grant Program supports the creation of sustainable prevention capabilities, both online and in local communities. This program supports the development of promising practices by reserving a portion of the funds for innovative approaches.
