In terms of federal contract awards, Special Education Services has recently been awarded a prime contract by the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Indian Affairs Bureau of Indian Education. This $155,440 firm fixed price purchase order, awarded on March 6, 2024, is for providing special education services at the Santa Rosa Day School in Sells, Arizona. The contract, which has an ultimate completion date of February 28, 2029, was awarded without any set-aside designation. This award demonstrates the organization's capability to deliver specialized educational services to support the Bureau of Indian Education's mission of serving American Indian and Alaska Native students.

Special Education Services has also been involved in numerous federal grant sub-awards, primarily through the Illinois State Board of Education. These sub-awards are focused on school meal programs, including the National School Lunch Program, School Breakfast Program, and Summer Food Service Program (SFSP). The organization receives reimbursements for meals served to students in participating school districts and independent schools. Additionally, Special Education Services participates in the SFSP, which provides healthy meals to children and teens in low-income areas during summer months when school is not in session. These grant sub-awards span multiple years, indicating the organization's ongoing commitment to supporting nutrition programs for students across various educational settings.
