School Safety and Violence Prevention Act

The School Safety and Violence Prevention Act (H.R. 4774) would establish a federal grant program to help states implement comprehensive anti-bullying and safety initiatives in schools. Under this bill, states would receive funding to create educational and counseling programs, anonymous reporting hotlines, and real-time databases to track school-related crimes and bullying. The legislation aims to protect students and staff by requiring schools to develop standardized emergency response plans for incidents of violence.
