PSA

This collection is a result of youth work and was supported by the Youth and Community Initiatives Division at the Texas School Safety Center. During the spring of the 2025-2026 school year, the Texas School Safety Center facilitated a public service announcement (PSA) contest.

Students in 6th-12th grade were invited to submit PSAs to share an important message about school safety from a student's perspective. Topics covered included: teen mental health, youth substance use prevention, violence prevention, and campus safety.
