The Department of Education Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services awarded a $4,161,764 Formula Grant to the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education under the Special Education-Grants for Infants and Families federal grant program (CFDA 84.181).
The grant funding will support the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education in delivering early intervention services from July 1, 2021 through September 30, 2022 to infants and toddlers with disabilities and their families. Specifically, the grant assists Missouri in maintaining a statewide, coordinated system to provide comprehensive, multidisciplinary services to help make early intervention accessible. As the designated state agency, the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education will oversee service delivery through local providers across the state.
The Special Education-Grants for Infants and Families program aims to help states establish and operate a statewide system offering early intervention to eligible children from birth to age three and their families. This funding for Missouri furthers that goal over the specified 15-month grant period.
