Bluum, a leading provider of education technology, has unveiled a suite of free grant resources and consulting services designed to help districts navigate the process of applying for School Violence Protection Program (SVPP) funds offered by the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS). The COPS SVPP grant, which last year distributed more than $73 million to enhance districts’ security measures through evidence-based safety programs, is currently open for applications. All public school districts (even those with a single school), public school boards, and public charter schools are eligible. Applications for the grant must be submitted in a two-step process, each with its own deadline. The first deadline, for which materials must be submitted via Grants.gov is June 11, 2024. The second deadline, for which materials must be submitted through JustGrants, is June 17, 2024.
