The Idaho State Board of Education received a $618,346 Formula Grant award from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education to support the Title I State Agency Program for Neglected and Delinquent Children and Youth. The grant period runs from July 1, 2021 through September 30, 2022. The grant aims to provide educational continuity for neglected and delinquent children and youth in state-run institutions for juveniles and adult correctional facilities, to help these individuals successfully transition to school or employment upon release.
Two sub-awards were issued under the grant to support these services. The Idaho Department of Juvenile Corrections received funding to serve neglected and delinquent youth in its facilities. The Idaho Department of Correction also received a sub-award to provide similar educational programs and transition services for this population in its adult prisons. Both sub-awards help further the goal of the CFDA 84.013 program to support the unique educational and transitional needs of at-risk youth and adults involved in the criminal justice system.
