Use of Funds

Allowed Uses

The Title I, Part D, Subpart 1, State Agency Neglected and Delinquent program provides formula grants to State educational agencies (SEAs) that then make subgrants to State agencies. State agencies use funds for supplementary education services to help provide educational continuity for children and youth in State-operated institutions for neglected or delinquent children and youth, in community day programs for neglected or delinquent children and youths, and in adult correctional institutions so that these children and youth can make successful transitions to school or employment once they are released. This program is subject to non-supplanting requirements and must use a restricted indirect cost rate which is referenced under 34 CFR 76.564-76.569.
