“This program was developed to fund exactly what our platform was designed to deliver: better coordination between schools and law enforcement for an expedited response to acts of school violence.”

– Scott Lowry, StrataSite President

The grant will provide up to 75% of funding for the following school safety measures in and around K-12 (primary and secondary) schools and school grounds:

  • Coordination with law enforcement
  • Training for local law enforcement officers to prevent student violence against others and self
  • Metal detectors, locks, lighting, and other deterrent measures
  • Technology for expedited notification of local law enforcement during an emergency
  • Any other measure that the COPS Office determines may provide a significant improvement in security

Incident Action Planning (IAP) with StrataSite helps bridge the gaps in communication, planning, and training that can hinder effective response through stakeholder collaboration. StrataSite gives all stakeholders 24/7 access to safety plans via digital asset management (DAM) and enables stakeholder training with the built-in learning management system (LMS) to further align responders for a coordinated response.
