Connecticut Proposes Alyssa’s Law: S.B. No. 846

Introduced by Senator Ceci Maher in January 2025, S.B. No. 846 is an act concerning the use of wireless signals to summon law enforcement authorities to schools. The purpose of this legislation is “to prevent school shootings by using wireless signals at schools.”

The law, if enacted, would amend title 10 of the general statutes to “require that teachers, school administrators and similar school employees possess a card that can be pressed in order to send a wireless signal to a law enforcement authority to immediately summon such authority to the school where such individuals are located.”

 

School Security Competitive Grant Program 

Governor Lamont’s June 24, 2025, bill expands the School Security Competitive Grant Program to cover wearable panic alarms—empowering your staff with always-available protection. This funding is meant to assist with the implementation of needed security infrastructure improvements and upgrades to emergency communication systems at schools throughout Connecticut.

Why CENTEGIX CrisisAlert™ Stands Out

  • No apps or phones needed—wearable panic badges work 24/7, even in dead zones
  • 100% staff adoption—Teachers, substitutes, food service staff, and custodians all protected equally
  • Room-level alerts—First responders find incidents faster

Act now—grant funding is limited. Let us help you complete your application today.

Championing Safe Schools with Educators and Educator Associations

Hear from Our Educators

We engage with teachers and staff every day to understand how CrisisAlert supports them, and here’s what they’ve shared:

A student was having trouble breathing and her vision was beginning to black out. We don’t have service in our building and it can be difficult to get ahold of the office staff, so having something to immediately alert them of emergency was incredibly helpful in a very scary situation.

Elementary school teacher

Clayton County Schools, GA

I had a student who was refusing to follow directions and became very defiant. This student was beginning to get aggressive. I used my badge to alert our campus security monitor to remove the student from the situation. It is a very useful tool when the response was as immediate as it was.

High school teacher

Clark County School District, NV

A student was having a severe panic attack, trouble speaking, crying, not able to answer my questions as to what was wrong with her. I used the device to call for administrative help and it worked like it was designed to. Help arrived in a matter of seconds. I saw firsthand how well it works.
