The New Jersey Department of Education received a $1.66 million formula grant award from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education under the Title I State Agency Program for Neglected and Delinquent Children and Youth (CFDA #84.013). The grant period runs from July 1, 2021 through September 30, 2022.
The funding will support educational services for neglected and delinquent children and youth in New Jersey's state-run institutions for juveniles and adult correctional facilities. Specifically, the grant will help provide educational continuity so these youth can successfully transition to school or employment upon release. This aligns with the overall goal of the Title I State Agency Program for Neglected and Delinquent Children and Youth to address the unique educational needs of children and youth in state-operated institutions.
