About this program
The Department of Education administered the Rehabilitation Services-Vocational Rehabilitation Grants to States, Recovery Act program (CFDA 84.390) to assist states in operating vocational rehabilitation services for individuals with disabilities, preparing them for competitive employment. The program is inactive: the most recent grant award was August 5, 2010, with no grant opportunities currently posted. This was a time-limited Recovery Act program; no new awards have been made in 16 years.
The program funded basic support for state vocational rehabilitation operations. All 80 grants awarded were Formula Grants, distributed as state allocations under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. The Department of Education was the sole funding agency, obligating $540.1 million in federal dollars across the portfolio. Recipients contributed an additional $340.5 million in non-federal matching funds, bringing combined total obligations to $880.6 million. Award magnitudes ranged from under $400 thousand to over $74 million, with the largest awards flowing to populous states. Representative awards included Formula Grant H390A090005 for $74.5 million (February 17, 2009), Formula Grant H390A090086 for $52.3 million (February 17, 2009), and Formula Grant H390A090064 for $48.1 million (February 17, 2009). The program made 77 awards on February 17, 2009, and 3 additional awards between May and August 2010, with all grant periods ending September 30, 2010.
Do not pursue this program. Recovery Act funding has been exhausted and no new solicitations are planned. The program served as a temporary stimulus mechanism during the 2008–2010 economic downturn; ongoing vocational rehabilitation funding operates through different assistance listings and mechanisms.
