Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano will speak in Little Rock on August 22 as part of the Frank and Kula Kumpuris Distinguished Lecture Series, which is presented by the Clinton School, the Clinton Foundation and AT&T.
As part of her “University Series” of speeches on critical homeland security challenges, Secretary Napolitano will discuss the important role that public service can play in securing our country from the threats we face — from terrorism to natural disasters.
As the nation’s third Secretary of Homeland Security, Napolitano has forged new partnerships with international allies and expanded information sharing among federal, state and local law enforcement. She has initiated new, more strategic approaches to strengthen security along our southwest border, enforce our immigration laws and bolster the nation’s ability to prepare for, respond to and recover from disasters.
Prior to her appointment, Napolitano was serving her second term as governor of Arizona where she was recognized for her leadership in national security, border security and immigration.
The Kumpuris Lecture Series was established by Katherine Ann Kumpuris Trotter, Dr. Drew Kumpuris and Dr. Dean Kumpuris in honor of their mother, Kula Kumpuris, and in memory of their father, Dr. Frank Kumpuris.
The lecture will be Monday, August 22 at 6:00 p.m. at the Great Hall of the Clinton Presidential Center. Reserve your seats by emailing kumpurislecture@clintonschool.uasys.edu, or calling 501-683-5239.
