New Federal School Safety Website Launched

The Department of Justice recently announced the launch of the federal school safety website SchoolSafety.gov. This website is a clearinghouse of school safety and security resources for K-12 administrators, educators, parents, and law enforcement. SchoolSafety.gov is a collaborative effort by the Departments of Justice, Homeland Security, Education, and Health and Human Services. The website was created in response to a recommendation from President Trump’s Federal Commission on School Safety.
