Dear friends,
America's students have returned to in-person instruction and the goal of school safety is more important than ever. On this Giving Tuesday, please consider sending in a donation to Stand with Parkland - The National Association of Families for Safe Schools so we can amplify your voice to advocate for improvements that keep students and staff safe at school.

In 2018, Stand with Parkland – The National Association of Families for Safe Schools was founded by families who tragically lost their children and spouses in the Parkland school massacre. We decided that enough is enough – we must work together to end attacks on our nation’s schools and to ensure schools are safe places for growth and learning.
Since then, we have used a uniquely inclusive and nonpartisan approach to advocate for school safety enhancements, mental health screening and support programs, and responsible firearms ownership. And with the support of families around the country, we’ve been able to work with lawmakers on both sides of the aisle at all levels of government. Because violence in our schools is not a Democrat problem or a Republican problem – it is an American problem.
[link removed] [[link removed]]Our efforts have yielded results, and we have seen practical steps taken toward safety in schools across the country. Here are a few highlights:
*
In
July,
SB
590
-
School
Safety
became
law.
We
successfully
advocated
for
a
provision
establishing
a
parental
right
to
t
imely
notification
of
threats
to
or
significant
emergencies
on
school
grounds,
on
school
transportation,
or
during
school-sponsored
activities,
ensuring
that
parents
will
have
the
information
that
we
did
not.
*
In
a
continuation
of
our
partnership
with
the
U.S.
Secret
Service
National
Threat
Assessment
Center
(NTAC),
we
helped
introduce
the
2021
Averting
Targeted
School
Violence
report,
which
focuses
on
schools
using
behavioral
threat
assessment
techniques
to
get
students
the
help
they
need
before
they
turn
to
violence.
*
We
met
with
members
of
Congress
to
advocate
for
the
EAGLES
Act,
which
is
named
for
the
Marjory
Stoneman
Douglas
High
School
mascot
and
would
fund
the
National
Threat
Assessment
Center
(NTAC)
through
2023
and
allow
it
to
continue
its
groundbreaking
work
to
prevent
mass
attacks.
*
And
more!
