AI Summary
This bill amends the Public School Code of 1949 to further define the School Safety and Security Grant Program. It establishes the School Safety and Security Disbursements Program, which replaces the previous grant program and requires the Department of Education to disburse funds directly to school entities for various school safety and security initiatives, including safety and security assessments, conflict resolution programs, behavioral support, risk assessment, and security-related technology and training. The bill also creates the School Safety and Security Fund, a special nonlapsing fund in the State Treasury, to support these disbursements. Additionally, the bill allocates specific funding for community violence prevention programs.
