The program is the primary source of funding for all Texas schools and ensures all schools receive roughly the same amount of funding per student.$37.
$950,000 in yearly funding for two additional"coordinated specialty care" teams, including one in the Uvalde area, that treat youth experiencing a first episode of psychosis, which is linked with an increased likelihood of committing suicide if untreated. $7 million to ensure that the Texas School Safety Center at Texas State University can provide all school districts in the state training on active-shooter response and a review of their response plans for these attacks.
