The Mission of JTF-CS Joint Task Force Civil Support (JTF-CS) plans and integrates DoD support to the designated Lead Federal Agency for domestic Chemical, Biological Radiological, Nuclear and high-yield Explosive (CBRNE) consequence management operations. When directed by Commander U.S. NORTHERN COMMAND, JTF-CS will deploy to the incident site, establish command and control of designated DoD forces and provide military assistance to civil authorities. Save Lives, Prevent Injury Provide Temporary Critical Life Support
