Put up to 1,000 new school resource officers and school counselors on the job: The
Administration is proposing a new Comprehensive School Safety program, which will help
school districts hire staff and make other critical investments in school safety. The program
will give $150 million to school districts and law enforcement agencies to hire school resource
officers, school psychologists, social workers, and counselors. The Department of Justice will also
develop a model for using school resource officers, including best practices on age-appropriate
methods for working with students.
