What it does
The Saving Students with Software Act would direct the Secretary of Education to establish a grant program to help states cover the cost of suicide prevention software in elementary and secondary schools. The software would be installed on school-provided devices and designed to alert school personnel when students type words or phrases related to self-harm or suicide. States, including the District of Columbia, U.S. territories, and federally recognized Indian Tribes, would be eligible to apply for grants by submitting applications to the Secretary of Education. The program must be established within 180 days of the bill’s enactment.
