TLO/FLO

The Threat Liaison Officer (TLO) and Fusion Liaison Officer (FLO) programs provide for one or more points of contact within partner agencies to act as conduits for information sharing with the WSIC.  TLOs and FLOs function as the “eyes and ears” of the fusion center in the field.  The effective and timely analysis of credible threat information depends heavily on the capabilities of each TLO or FLO and the support from their parent agencies.  Each TLO and FLO is trained to recognize and evaluate potential terrorist activity and the proper actions to take.
