September 2026 News
September marked an exciting beginning for The First Minute Project. From launching our 501(c)(3) nonprofit and raising more than $2,000 in our first week to welcoming new community ambassadors and beginning conversations with school districts, our mission is gaining momentum. We also connected with the office of U.S. Representative Brittany Pettersen about the First Minute Act and began discussions with Jefferson County School District about a potential foothills pilot program. Read our September in Review to see how our community is helping us work toward safer, better-prepared schools.
