President Joe Biden has announced that the Department of Justice will provide more than $231 million to states for crisis intervention projects such as red-flag initiatives in an effort to curb shootings.

The White House announced the program on Feb. 14, which was the fifth anniversary of the Parkland tragedy in 2018 in which a shooter killed 17 people at a Florida high school.
