Regional Services

The Regional Services Department is responsible for a wide-range of activities designed to improve the quality of life at the community level.

National Special Events Data Call (Data Call)

The Data Call is an annual process that relies on the voluntary participation of 56 states and territories to collect information on events occurring in their jurisdictions. The SEAR Methodology, a risk-based analytical approach, is applied to all events submitted to the Data Call.

Supports

As long as the basic (“required”) event information is provided, and the event meets the definition of a special event, the DHS Special Events Program will accept the event.

Protects

The five SEWG Co-Chairs review the event information and results of the analysis, and adjudicate SEAR levels for all special events submitted to the Data Call.

Advocates

SEAR levels are shared with the state hosting the event, SEWG, and other federal partners.

Advocates

Events submitted outside of the Data Call are called short-notice events. Short-notice events undergo the same analytical and adjudication process as those submitted during the Data Call.

Event Access Authorization by Homeland Security Advisors

Homeland Security Advisors (HSA), or their proxies, are the ultimate authority for their state’s participation in the Data Call and are also the sole approving authority for granting event contributors access to the SEWG COI on HSIN.

**GCRPC will accept event admissions year round.
