State-funded School Resource Officer Program open solicitation

Abstract

The purpose of the SRO Program is to fund full-time certified law enforcement officers to serve as SROs in schools that otherwise would lack the adequate resources to hire their own SROs. SRO Program funds may be used to pay for the salary and employer contributions (fringe benefits), as well as law enforcement equipment and training for new and existing state-funded SROs based on a documented need. This OPEN SOLICITATION is only for requesting salary/fringe, training, and equipment for new state-funded SRO positions that have not been previously awarded. The solicitation for continued funding for existing state-funded SRO positions, training, and replacement equipment along with new positions will be available in January/February of each year.
