The Students, Teachers, Officers Preventing (STOP) School Violence Grant Program is designed to improve K-12 school security by providing students and teachers with the tools they need to recognize, respond quickly to, and help prevent acts of violence and ensure a positive school climate.
The STOP School Violence Act of 2018 gave the Department of Justice the authority to provide awards to grantees to implement evidence-based school safety programs and technology. These awards are provided through the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA), Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS), and Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP).
This webinar will provide an overview of the fiscal year (FY) 2024 opportunities available through the program:
- FY24 STOP School Violence Program Competitive Solicitation (BJA)
- FY24 School Violence Prevention Program (COPS)
- FY24 Enhancing School Capacity To Address Youth Violence (OJJDP)
To use time efficiently, webinar participants are encouraged to submit questions by April 29.
