Formula Grant S013A250013

This $531,907 Formula Grant awarded by 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) provides funding to the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) to deliver educational services to neglected and delinquent children and youth in state-run juvenile institutions and adult correctional facilities in Illinois. The grant supports a range of educational services, including academic instruction, special education, career and technical training, counseling, and transition planning, with the goal of helping these students successfully transition back to school or employment. As the state educational agency, ISBE will likely sub-award portions of the funding to the Illinois Department of Corrections, Department of Juvenile Justice, and local educational agencies to enable direct service delivery to the target population across the state.
