Infant, toddlers & families (part c)

The Department of Education Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services awarded the Department of Health Wyoming $2.587 million on July 1, 2026, under the Special Education-Grants for Infants and Families program (CFDA 84.181), a formula grant supporting statewide systems of coordinated early intervention services for infants and toddlers with disabilities, aged birth through two, and their families.

The award funds Wyoming's implementation and maintenance of a comprehensive, multidisciplinary, interagency early intervention system serving eligible children with disabilities and their families statewide, including Indian children and families residing on reservations geographically located in the state. The Department of Health Wyoming, designated as the state lead agency, administers the grant and sub-awards portions of funding to regional early intervention service providers including county child development centers and nonprofit organizations across Wyoming.

Performance period runs through September 30, 2027, with place of performance in Cheyenne, Wyoming. The Department of Health Wyoming's federal portfolio centers on administering federal entitlements and discretionary grants across public health infrastructure, nutrition assistance, aging services, substance use disorder prevention and treatment, and mental health services, with approximately 95 percent of its federal footprint as a prime recipient of block grants, formula grants, and cooperative agreements. The agency retains records related to grant funds and compliance for three years from the date of final expenditure report submission, and must maintain records related to identification, evaluation, and provision of services for specific children for the period during which a due process hearing request or state complaint may be filed.
