These programs help schools invest in technologies including:

• Access control systems
• Video surveillance systems
• Emergency communications
• Panic alarms and emergency notification systems
• Visitor management technologies
• Intrusion detection systems

Electronic security and life safety technologies play an important role in helping schools improve situational awareness, coordinate emergency response, and better protect students, teachers, staff, and visitors.

As Congress continues budget and appropriations discussions, it is critical that schools maintain access to federal funding programs that support school security and life safety infrastructure.

Take action today and urge Congress to continue supporting federal funding for electronic school security and life safety systems.
