The U.S. Department of Education's Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services has awarded a $37,147,853 Formula Grant under the Special Education Preschool Grants program (CFDA 84.173) to the New York State Education Department (NYSED). This grant, effective from July 1, 2025 to September 30, 2026, supports comprehensive special education and related services for children with disabilities aged 3 through 5 years in New York. The program aims to ensure that children with disabilities receive free appropriate public education through specialized instruction, therapeutic services, and individualized support. Typical services include specialized instruction, speech and language therapy, occupational and physical therapy, assistive technology, and other support designed to prepare young children with disabilities for successful transitions into kindergarten and future academic environments. As the primary state-level recipient, NYSED will sub-award funds to local school districts, intermediate educational units, charter schools, and other regional educational organizations across New York to deliver these critical early childhood special education services.
