Interoperable Communications Pilot Program Deadline: Friday, January 15, 2010 (or Monday, February 15, 2010 by request)

Grant Application Announcement 

We have received numerous inquiries from around the country about our School Safety Fund grant program and how to apply online.

You can apply online at http://www.schoolsafetyfund.org/. The application process is streamlined and favors those who can write a concise, well-focused executive summary.

SchoolSafe Communications, the leader in emergency communications technology for schools, will underwrite $1,000,000 in costs for a first round of 20 grants to U.S. school districts through the new School Safety Fund established by School Safety Partners.

The Interoperable Communications Pilot Program grants will support partnerships among school districts, local response agencies, and other community resources to make schools safer, and will cover the costs of an advanced communications system, as well as joint school safety planning, training, drills, exercises, and evaluations. The grants are also designed to help schools access additional funding from Federal sources and through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA).

Links to detailed information are included in the online application form.

School Safety Partners expects to announce 20 grants on February 26, 2010.

Applications must be filed online no later than Friday, January 15, 2010. You may request an extension to file no later than Monday, February 15, 2010. However, you must submit the Request for Extension at www.SchoolSafetyFund.org no later than Friday, January 15, 2010.

Feel free to call John Simmons at 303-548-3816 if you have any questions.
