The Adult Education - Basic Grants to States program (CFDA 84.002), administered by the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Career Technical and Adult Education, provided a $18,966,799 Formula Grant award to the Executive Office State Of Ohio, doing business as the Ohio Department of Higher Education. This grant funds local adult education and literacy services, including workplace literacy, family literacy, English language acquisition, and integrated English literacy-civics education programs. The grant supports services for adults and out-of-school youths aged 16 and older who lack a high school diploma or equivalent, helping them improve basic skills, complete secondary education, and transition to postsecondary education or employment.

The Ohio Department of Higher Education, as the prime grantee, sub-awarded portions of this funding to various local educational agencies, community colleges, non-profit organizations, and other entities across Ohio to deliver the direct adult education and literacy services. Key sub-awardees included the Delaware Area Career Center, Columbus Public School District, Educational Solutions Co, and Cuyahoga County Public Library, among others, who provided a range of programs such as adult basic education, family literacy, English language training, and workforce development support.
