The Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) a $770,780 Student Support and Academic Enrichment (SSAE) Program Grant (CFDA 84.424) on December 18, 2024. The SSAE Program aims to improve student academic achievement by increasing the capacity of states, local education agencies, schools, and communities to provide well-rounded educational opportunities, improve school conditions for student learning, and enhance the use of technology.
Under this 3-year Project Grant, ISBE will utilize the funding to deliver technical assistance and capacity building services to support mental health and well-being programs for early learners, school-age children, youth, and educators across Illinois. The grant activities align with the SSAE Program's focus on evidence-based, inclusive mental health initiatives. ISBE will partner with local school districts, universities, nonprofits, and other organizations as sub-recipients to implement the grant activities statewide.
