This $998,866 federal Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of Justice's Bureau of Justice Assistance (CFDA 16.839 STOP School Violence Program) will support Hamilton County Schools in Chattanooga, Tennessee to implement a comprehensive school climate and violence prevention initiative. Key activities include:
Performing school culture walk-throughs, providing culture of care professional development for educators, establishing culture and climate committees, and developing an anti-vaping program. The overall goals are to establish a safe, positive school environment, reduce disproportionality in discipline, chronic absenteeism, and bullying, as well as curb the increasing prevalence of student vaping. Hamilton County Schools will partner with the local health department to carry out this 3-year initiative, which runs from October 2024 through September 2027.
