CCSDPD receives “Joining Forces” grant from Nevada Office of Traffic Safety

The Clark County School District Police Department (CCSDPD) Traffic Unit has received grant funding from the Joining Forces grant through the Nevada Office of Traffic Safety that will help educate drivers and pedestrians to help prevent crashes and save lives.

The CCSDPD’s Traffic Unit’s mission is to increase police visibility in and around schools and school zones. Additionally, CCSD police officers work to educate drivers and pedestrians about the importance of traffic safety.

The grant funding will allow CCSDPD to join forces with police agencies across Nevada to enforce traffic-related violations through “Joining Forces” events focused on impaired driving, distracted driving, pedestrian safety, speeding and seat belt use. The intent is to bring awareness to the risky behaviors that lead to preventable crashes.
