A grant for a program that was approved by the Hays County Commissioner’s Court last week was fully explained on Tuesday.
Jude Prather, the county’s Veterans Services Officer, briefed commissioners and County Judge Ruben Becerra on the grant for the Volunteer Veterans at School program, which is a function of the Criminal Justice Division of the Governor’s Office.
Prather began his remarks with a nod to school security protocols already in place in Hays County public schools, protocols that were recognized when Governor Greg Abbott chose the ALERRT Center to unveil his own initiative on school safety in the wake of the shooting in Santa Fe.
