The Acadia Parish School Board received a $350,700 project grant award from the Department of Justice's Community Oriented Policing Services Program to implement the School Violence Prevention Program. The grant will support evidence-based programs through 2025 to improve school security and foster a positive learning environment. Specifically, the School Violence Prevention Program grant funds will be used to advance the COPS Office's mission of enhancing public safety through community policing initiatives. By establishing partnerships between law enforcement and schools, this project aims to collaboratively address immediate safety issues and promote trust through problem-oriented policing strategies such as the SARA model's scan, analysis, response, and assessment approach.
