Establishes "Responsible School Violence Prevention, Preparation, and Protection Pilot Program" in certain counties and cities of first class; makes an appropriation.

This bill establishes a three-year pilot program in seven New Jersey counties (Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Middlesex, Morris, Passaic, and Union) and major cities to prevent school violence. It trains school staff, law enforcement, mental health professionals, and students to identify and report concerning behaviors using a new threat assessment tool and a science-based training curriculum. The program requires immediate threat reporting mechanisms and annual evaluations by the Attorney General, who must recommend to the legislature whether to expand it statewide. Funding for the initiative will come from the state general fund.
