Two sub-awards were also made under this grant. The Tennessee Department of Correction will receive funding to educate neglected and delinquent children within its Division of Administration. Additionally, funds were sub-awarded to the Tennessee Department of Children's Services to support educational programs within its Office of Contracts & Procurement for these populations.
