- Posted 2/25/2026 Survey Monkey Apply Instructions - Posted 2/25/2026 Grant Webinar Recordings - Posted 2/25/2026 Pursuant to New York State Education Law §2814 : Omnibus school violence prevention grant program, the primary purpose of the Extended School Day/School Violence Prevention (ESD/SVP) Program is to award competitive grants to provide support to students through extended school day activities and/or school safety programs that promote violence prevention.
Programs must demonstrate consistency with the school safety plans required by §2801-a of New York State Education Law and should not displace existing school district after-school funding. Under State Education Department bill S4598D, school-based and school-affiliated anti-gun and anti-violence programs are now eligible as school safety activities under this grant.
Public school districts and not-for-profit organizations working in collaboration with a public school district(s) may submit an application to conduct either an ESD program or an SVP program. Applicants may apply for both programs; however, a separate application is required for each.
July 1, 2026 - June 30, 2031 Public school districts and not-for-profit organizations working in partnership with one or more public school districts are eligible to apply. Approximately $24. 3 million is expected to be available annually.
Funding beyond Year One will be contingent upon the State Legislature appropriating funds. Each application may include a request for an annual grant award of a maximum of $450,000. The Extended School Day (ESD) and School Violence Prevention (SVP) applications are separate, but an eligible entity may apply for both.
If the entity applies for both, the total funding applied for may not exceed $450,000. For instance, if an entity is applying for $250,000 with ESD, it can only apply for $200,000 with SVP, for a total of $450,000. Eligible school districts cannot apply as an individual district and also apply as part of a consortium.
The minimum annual award for an Extended School Day grant will be $125,000. However, there is no minimum award amount established for a School Violence Prevention grant. Funds will be allocated to each geographic area as follows: 40% to New York City; 10% to the big four cities of Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, and Yonkers; and 50% to the Rest of the State, including at least 15% guaranteed to High Needs Rural applicants.
If not enough High Needs Rural applications meet the scoring threshold outlined in the RFP, the portion of the guaranteed 15 percent not used would revert to the overall Rest of the State. Prequalification Requirement Proposals received from nonprofit applicants that are not Prequalified in the Statewide Financial System (SFS) by 5:00 PM on the proposal due date April 17, 2026 , cannot be evaluated.
Such proposals will be disqualified from further consideration. Please see the “Prequalification Requirement” section of the RFP for additional information. Non-mandatory Notice of Intent The Notice of Intent (NOI) is not a requirement for submitting a complete application by the application date; however, NYSED strongly encourages all prospective applicants to submit an NOI to ensure a timely and thorough review and rating process.
A non-profit applicant’s NOI will also help to facilitate timely review of their prequalification materials. The notice of intent is a simple notification stating your organization’s (use the legal name) intent to submit an application for this grant. Please also include your organization’s NYS Vendor ID.
The due date is April 3, 2026. Please send the NOI by email to ESDSVPRFP@nysed. gov .

Read articleFederal appropriators added $15 billion in new Pell Grant funding to the FY 2026 appropriations package on top of the standard appropriation level — a response to a structural shortfall that CBO scored at $5.4 billion in FY 2026 and $11.5 billion in FY 2027. The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget projects a cumulative gap of $61 billion to $97 billion through 2035 even after the one-time fix. Meanwhile, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act expanded eligibility to short-term Workforce Pell programs, adding $2 to $6 billion in new costs. The Pell program is the foundation of need-based federal student aid, but the structural mismatch between rising costs and appropriations is a permanent feature now. Here is what that means for institutions, foundations, and state higher-ed agencies.
