The U.S. Department of Education's Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services awarded Bowie State University a $249,369 Project Grant under the Special Education - Personnel Development to Improve Services and Results for Children with Disabilities program (CFDA 84.325). This 12-month grant, effective September 1, 2024, supports Bowie State's "UPRISE: URBAN PREPARATION OF RESPONSIVE, INCLUSIVE SPECIAL EDUCATORS" initiative. The project aims to enhance the preparation of special education personnel to work with infants, toddlers, and children with disabilities, particularly in urban settings. Through this funding, Bowie State will develop degree programs, training initiatives, and applied research projects to ensure special education, early intervention, and related services professionals have the necessary skills and knowledge derived from evidence-based practices to effectively serve children with disabilities.
