School Police Receive Federal Security Grant

San Diego Unified School Police Department has been awarded $116,750 for the purchase of a replacement power generator for the Emergency Operations Center (EOC), as well as bulletproof blankets to be used during the rescue of students and staff in the event of an emergency.

The grant was received as part of the recent award of $7.7 million to San Diego county agencies to coordinate and improve response to homeland security and other catastrophic events, such as wildfires and earthquakes. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security provided the funds to the California Emergency Management Agency.
