Learn and Serve America: Homeland Security Service-Learning Grant

Homeland Security

The Texas Homeland Security Grant program was developed by the Corporation for National and Community Service as a two-year grant program to tap America's youth as an important resource for local schools and communities planning for and responding to the health, safety, and security concerns associated with natural and man-made disasters. The Texas subgrantees include Austin Independent School District, which is operating the program in an afterschool model in collaboration with other school districts in Central Texas, and the Harris County Department of Education, which is supporting the model through the Teen CERT program in districts in the Houston area.
