MOHS Data Project
      Telling Our Story

This project’s goal is to create a grant data capturing system that will tell the grant stakeholders the positive impact the Missippi Office of Homeland Security has on the state of Mississippi through timely and accurate data collection.

In today’s data driven world it is not import what you did, but it is import what you documented you did.
