The Department of Education California, operating through its Fiscal and Administrative Services Division in Sacramento, serves as the state educational agency recipient and acts as a pass-through entity distributing funds to local educational agencies with high proportions of youth in local correctional facilities and to state agencies providing educational services in facilities for neglected or delinquent youth. The award covers the period July 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027, with funds remaining available for obligation and expenditure through the following fiscal year.

The program supports improving education services for children and youth in local, tribal, and state institutions; services facilitating successful transitions back to school and employment; and dropout prevention for at-risk youth. Funds may support local educational agencies with high numbers or percentages of children and youth in locally operated correctional facilities and community day programs. Non-federal entities expending $750,000 or more in federal awards annually are subject to single or program-specific audit under 2 CFR 200, Subpart F.
