The Bureau of Indian Education (BIE) received a $3,045,220 Formula Grant award from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services on July 1, 2021 to support early intervention services for infants and toddlers with disabilities through September 30, 2022. The funding supports the Special Education-Grants for Infants and Families program (CFDA 84.181), which provides grants to implement and maintain statewide systems offering comprehensive, coordinated, multidisciplinary early intervention services for eligible children and their families. Specifically, the BIE will use the award to make available services like developmental support and instruction, speech and language therapy, physical and occupational therapy, service coordination, and more for Native American infants and toddlers with disabilities on reservations across the country. The grant program aims to enhance developmental outcomes and minimize the potential needs for special education as children with disabilities grow older.
