ARRA Guidelines for IDEA Part 4-24-09

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) (Public Law 111-5) appropriates significant new funding for programs under Parts B and C of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Part B of the IDEA provides funds to state educational agencies (SEAs) and through them to local educational agencies (LEAs) to help them ensure that children with disabilities, including children aged three through five, have access to a free appropriate public education to meet each child’s unique needs and prepare each child for further education, employment, and independent living. Part C of the IDEA provides funds through the Grants for Infants and Families program to each state lead agency designated by the Governor to implement statewide systems of coordinated, comprehensive, multidisciplinary interagency programs and make early intervention services available through early intervention service (EIS) programs to infants and toddlers with disabilities and their families.
