Wrap Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: WRAP) shares wavered Friday. The Miami-based company, a global public safety technology and training concern, today announced that it has been selected by WOFT Charities to support training services associated with the WOFT (Where Our Families Train) Teacher Safety Training Program, which has been awarded $475,000 in Florida’s Fiscal Year 2026–27 state budget.
The appropriation appears in the Conference Report for HB 5001E as “WOFT: Teacher Safety Training Program in the amount of $475,000.
The initiative will provide practical safety and preparedness training for teachers, administrators and other school personnel. WOFT has selected WRAP to support the effort with training methodologies centered on situational awareness, threat recognition, early intervention, de-escalation and avoiding physical confrontation whenever possible.
For WRAP, according to this morning’s news release, “the engagement extends principles the Company teaches within law enforcement into a broader professional safety environment: awareness comes first, and the best physical confrontation is often the one recognized early enough to avoid.”
“Everything starts with awareness,” said Wrap President Jared Novick. “That is true for a law enforcement officer responding to a call, and it is equally relevant to a teacher responsible for a classroom. Recognizing threat indicators, understanding when circumstances are changing, and knowing how to avoid or de-escalate a confrontation are foundational skills. WOFT laid the groundwork to bring those principles into Florida schools, and we are excited to support them in delivering it.”
WRAP shares retreated 1.5 cents to $1.72.
