The U.S. Department of Education's Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services awarded a $2,366,487 Formula Grant under the Rehabilitation Services Independent Living Services for Older Individuals Who are Blind (CFDA 84.177) program to the Florida Department of Education (FDOE), acting through its Division of Vocational Rehabilitation. This annual formula grant supports comprehensive independent living services for older individuals in Florida experiencing blindness or visual impairment. The funding enables FDOE to provide a range of services, including vocational assessments, career counseling, job training, assistive technology support, and other independent living assistance tailored to the specific needs of visually impaired older adults. FDOE often sub-awards portions of the grant to local non-profit organizations and community service providers to facilitate the delivery of these independent living services across the state.
