More Than $83 Million School Grants Now Available for School Security
U.S. Attorney Bill Powell announced that more than $83 million in Department of Justice grants is available to help communities improve school security and protect students, teachers and faculty from school violence.
Schools should be a safe haven for students, a place to learn and grow. No child, parent, or educator should be afraid of anything that happens inside school walls. We must do everything we can to prevent violence at our schools. I hope that our educational leaders apply for funding to make their schools safer places to learn,” said Powell.
