The Chemical Biological Defense Program (CBDP) fields capabilities to the Joint Force in a core mission area of the DoD to counter Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMDs) and plays a key role in executing the DoD Strategy for countering WMDs. The program principally supports the Priority Objective to deny the effects of current and emerging WMD threats through layered, integrated defenses. It provides direction and enabling capabilities to maintain and expand technical expertise; cooperate with and support partners; understand the threat environment and vulnerabilities to; control, defeat, disable, and/or, dispose of WMD threats; safeguard the force, and manage consequences. The CBDP provides this support as described in the CBDP Strategic Plan.
The CBDP fields capabilities which support the Joint Forces' ability to operate in a Chemical Biological Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) environment. The CBDP Enterprise is composed of: components, services, and enabling partners. Those organizations with core responsibilities for the CBDP are the components and includes those organizations depicted in the video.
