S. 111 would require the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), in coordination with other federal agencies, to disseminate information on school safety measures to state and local education agencies. The bill would direct DHS to work with other federal agencies to identify existing grant programs that can support school safety improvements.
The bill also would require DHS to establish an advisory board composed of nonfederal entities to provide feedback on the information that the department distributes and to make recommendations for additional school safety measures.
