This Formula Grant award from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services provides $8,430,455 to the Maryland State Department of Education to implement the state's system for delivering early intervention services to infants and toddlers with disabilities and their families, as outlined in the Special Education-Grants for Infants and Families program (CFDA 84.181). The funding period is from July 1, 2021 through September 30, 2022.
Through various sub-awards, the grant supports multiple organizations in providing early intervention and family support services statewide. Key sub-recipients include The Johns Hopkins University, the University of Maryland Baltimore, and the Parents' Place of Maryland, which support training and technical assistance. Local education agencies in many Maryland counties receive sub-awards to deliver direct early intervention services. The comprehensive statewide system aims to identify eligible children early and provide multidisciplinary support to help families support their child's development.
