About Us:
The MSSC was endorsed by Montana's Superintendent of Public Instruction, Linda McCullough in 2005 and approved by the Montana University System Board of Regents in 2006. However, our organization has been working on numerous school safety grants and initiatives since 1999.
Program collaboration has occurred for and with many agencies including: Montana Office of Public Instruction's Montana Behavioral Initiative, the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Safe and Drug Free Schools (OSDFS), the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), and the U.S. Department of Justice Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) office.

What do MSSC trainings and consultations cost?
MSSC is a non-profit organization entirely funded through grants and consultation fees with P/K-12 schools, university collaborations and community agency partnerships. Our fees are negotiable based on the needs and resources of the school as well as appropriate travel costs. In many cases, we are able to partner with schools through existing grants (often with cost-sharing) or in future grant seeking.
Let's discuss how we may assist you and your school community.
