In 2025, the South Dakota School Safety Center engaged in a relationship with the I Love U Guys Foundation to provide a local curriculum adoption of the Standard Response Protocol (SRP) and Standard Reunification Method (SRM). The I Love U Guys Foundation's programs for crisis response and post-crisis reunification are used in more than 60,000 schools and districts around the world. They were created through the research-based best practices of school administrators, psychologists, public space safety experts, families, and first responders. The South Dakota School Safety Center is elated to partner with the I Love U Guys Foundation to provide these best practices tools and training opportunities to all South Dakota K-12's
