Formula Grant S013A260049

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction $114,680 on July 1, 2026, under the Title I State Agency Program for Neglected and Delinquent Children and Youth (CFDA 84.013), a formula grant to support educational services for neglected and delinquent youth in state-run institutions, community day programs, and adult correctional facilities.

The award funds educational continuity and transition support for children and youth ages 5–17 in local, state, and tribal facilities for delinquent and neglected children, including adult correctional institutions. Eligible activities include improving education services in these facilities, providing support for successful transitions to school or employment upon release, dropout prevention, and support for students returning from correctional facilities or who have dropped out of school.

The period of performance runs from July 1, 2026, through September 30, 2027, with place of performance in Madison, Wisconsin. As a state educational agency, the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction receives the award on a formula basis and is responsible for distributing subgrants to local educational agencies with high proportions of youth in local correctional facilities and to community organizations delivering these services across Wisconsin. State agencies must update applications annually to receive continued funding under this program.
