Funds available to support the SS/HS program have been greatly reduced in FY 2011.  Funds appropriated will be used to make continuation awards to the current 89 (2008 and 2009) SS/HS grantees.  The proposed change to the SS/HS program priorities, requirements, and definitions (as described in the February 18th edition of the Federal Register) for future competitions is on-hold.  A decision to finalize the proposed changes will be made when more information is known about the FY 2012 appropriations.

In the wake of several recent highly-publicized stories about violence among school-aged children, a new report shows that school districts participating in the Safe Schools/Healthy Students Initiative substantially improved the safety of their students. 

We are pleased to offer visitors an alternative format for viewing the Road to Success and Faces of SS/HS videos. These videos are now available as video podcasts, and last for about five to seven minutes. This podcast series provides information on SS/HS and introduces some of the local grant sites that have made this Initiative such a success.

The Federal partners are proud to announce that this Web site has received several awards of distinction for quality and service to the public.
