The Department of Education Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services awarded a $2.082 million Formula Grant to the Mississippi State Department of Health under the Special Education-Grants for Infants and Families program (CFDA 84.181). The grant supports Mississippi's implementation and maintenance of a statewide system to provide early intervention services from July 2021 to September 2022 to infants and toddlers with disabilities and their families. As the designated state agency, the Mississippi State Department of Health will deliver early intervention services through local programs to help eligible young children and assist their families in supporting the children's development. The funding assists Mississippi in fulfilling its obligations under Part C of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act to make early intervention services available to all eligible infants and toddlers.
