## Description

This contract was not awarded competitively. This is an SBA 8(a) award.

**Awareness Campaign:** The straw purchasing initiative aims to increase awareness on the criminal penalties for straw purchases. The campaign will also highlight the tip lines as a key resource for the public to report a suspicious activity and suspected crimes. The Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA, P.L. 117-159) was signed into law on June 25, 2022. This landmark legislation implemented several changes to the mental health system, school safety programs, and gun safety laws.
