The grant program aims to help address state-identified needs for personnel preparation in early intervention, special education, related services, and regular education to work with children, including infants, toddlers, and youth with disabilities. Eligible applicants include institutions of higher education (private and public) and nonprofit organizations. The competition includes an absolute priority focused on preparing scholars to serve children with high-intensity needs, as well as a competitive preference priority for applications from new potential grantees.
