The U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded the Texas Education Agency (TEA) a $2,834,486 Formula Grant under the Title I State Agency Program for Neglected and Delinquent Children and Youth (CFDA 84.013). The grant period runs from July 1, 2024 to September 30, 2025.
The funding supports educational continuity and successful transitions for neglected and delinquent youth in state-run juvenile institutions and adult correctional facilities in Texas. Specifically, the grant provides supplemental services to help students acquire knowledge and skills aligned with state academic standards, including academic instruction, special education, career and technical training, counseling, and transition planning.
TEA further sub-awarded portions of the grant to two state agencies: the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) Windham School District and the Texas Juvenile Justice Department (TJJD). These sub-awardees use the funds to implement comprehensive educational and rehabilitation services within juvenile and adult correctional facilities across Texas.
