The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved July 12 a motion instructing county departments to collaborate with the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) and other school districts on increasing campus safety.

The motion was a response to violence in local schools and the recent national spate of school shootings. Specifically mentioned was the massacre in May in Uvalde, Tex., that left 19 students and two teachers dead, and 17 others wounded.
