Yakima valley school psychology consortium (yvspc)

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded County of Yakima 200 School District (Grandview School District #200) three million dollars on January 1, 2026, under the School Safety National Activities program (CFDA 84.184) to support the Yakima Valley School Psychology Consortium. The award period runs through December 31, 2026, with place of performance in Grandview, Washington.

School Safety National Activities funds activities to improve students' safety and well-being during and after the school day. The program authorizes Project School Emergency Response to Violence (Project SERV), which delivers education-related services including counseling and mental health referral to local educational agencies where the learning environment has been disrupted by violent or traumatic incident. Recent iterations of the program have also included Mental Health Services Professional Demonstration Grants addressing shortages of credentialed school-based mental health providers, specifically school psychologists, in high-need local educational agencies, and School-Based Mental Health Services Grants to increase the number of credentialed mental health services providers in high-need agencies.

Grandview School District #200 operates as a local government educational institution serving the Yakima Valley region and is designated as both a minority institution and Hispanic-serving institution. The assistance type is Project Grant.
