This federal Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families (CFDA 93.600 - Head Start) provides $499,650.00 in funding to Aiu3, a regional public education agency in Pennsylvania, for the Early Head Start program. The grant, which began on January 1, 2025 and will run through December 31, 2029, supports comprehensive early childhood education and family support services for low-income pregnant women, infants, toddlers, and preschool-aged children. The program aims to promote school readiness by providing educational, health, nutritional, and social services to enhance the cognitive, physical, behavioral, and social-emotional development of children from disadvantaged backgrounds prior to their entry into kindergarten. As a subrecipient, Aiu3 has also participated in entitlement programs with the Pennsylvania Department of Education and Pennsylvania Department of Human Services, which have provided additional funding for meals, food commodities, special education services, and COVID-19 relief efforts.
