Read more The United States, through Merida Initiative funding, is providing additional law enforcement training, equipment, and other assistance to Central American nations, Haiti, and the Dominican Republic. The Caribbean Basin Security Initiative (CBSI) will further strengthen the key institutions of our Caribbean partners to face the challenges of transnational crime and reduced economic opportunities.
