Pennsylvania Sets Holistic School Safety as Top Priority

The state of Pennsylvania is enabling its schools to invest in holistic school safety with the funding of two significant grants, designed to promote school safety and encourage student mental health and wellness. Both PA Act 33 and PA Act 55 make funds available to schools to provide programs that address safety and security as well as behavior support, restorative practices, and violence prevention.
