The U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded the Gwinnett County Board of Education, doing business as Gwinnett County Public Schools, a $804,420 Project Grant under the School Safety National Activities (CFDA 84.184) federal grant program. The grant, titled "GROW: GWINNETT'S RECRUITMENT AND OUTREACH FOR WELLNESS", aims to improve students' safety and well-being during and after the school day through comprehensive mental health and educational support initiatives. The funding will support the recruitment, training, and retention of qualified mental health professionals in Gwinnett County schools, the development of school-based mental health services, and the creation of innovative approaches to student safety and well-being. This award to the Gwinnett County Board of Education, a U.S. local government entity, builds on the organization's history of participation in federal education grants as both a prime recipient and subrecipient, with a focus on initiatives such as teacher development, STEM education, and COVID-19 relief funding.
