School Safety Program funded sites can join the monthly “Ask the Expert” sessions. Sessions take place once a month between September-April and are held virtually for 45 minutes. These optional sessions will not count toward required trainings but will provide school safety personnel, including officers, information to assist them with keeping their school community safe. An expert guest speaker will address issues specific to Arizona youth and attendees will be allotted time to ask questions relevant to their campus.
