This grant was requested following an extensive review and assessment meeting with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, the Lawrence Police and Fire Department safety liaisons and representatives of Douglas County Emergency Services. This review included a facility walk-around, interior and exterior, and discussions as to needed improvements and plan development.

The LJCC is most grateful to the Jewish Community Foundation of Greater Kansas City and its Community Legacy Fund for approving and funding this grant application request, and thereby assuring a safer and more secure environment for our congregation and its many visitors{/mprestriction}
