The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded a $223,753 Formula Grant to the Mississippi Department of Education under the Title I State Agency Program for Neglected and Delinquent Children and Youth (CFDA 84.013). The grant aims to provide educational continuity for neglected and delinquent youth in Mississippi state-run institutions and adult correctional facilities through September 30, 2022. Sub-awards were provided to the Mississippi Department of Human Services Family and Children's Services and the Mississippi Department of Corrections to deliver educational services and support successful school-to-work transitions for these youth populations once released. The grant supports the federal program's goal of helping neglected and delinquent children and youth make successful transitions to employment or further schooling upon leaving institutional care.
