This grant, offered by the Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools, is designed to significantly enhance emergency management capabilities at institutions of higher education (IHEs). Its primary purpose is to support IHEs in developing, reviewing, improving, and fully integrating comprehensive, campus-based all-hazards emergency management planning efforts. The program emphasizes a holistic and structured approach, ensuring that planning aligns seamlessly with the four critical phases of emergency management: Prevention-Mitigation, Preparedness, Response, and Recovery. Through this funding, recipients are expected to strengthen their campus safety protocols and emergency response frameworks, thereby better protecting their students, faculty, and staff. This initiative aims to foster robust and integrated emergency preparedness across all participating higher education institutions nationwide.
