Opportunity Information: Apply for ED GRANTS 111623 001

This grant opportunity comes from the U.S. Department of Education, Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services (OSERS), Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP), under Assistance Listing Number (ALN) 84.325R. It is a discretionary grant competition focused on strengthening the pipeline of well-prepared personnel who serve children with disabilities, with a specific emphasis on preparing related services personnel who work with children with high-intensity needs. In practice, the competition is aimed at improving the availability and quality of trained professionals who support infants, toddlers, children, and youth with disabilities across early intervention and school-based systems, using approaches grounded in scientifically based research.

The stated purpose of the overall program is twofold. First, it is meant to help address State-identified needs for personnel preparation across early intervention, special education, related services, and regular education, so that States and local programs have enough qualified staff to serve children with disabilities effectively. Second, it is designed to ensure those personnel develop the specific skills and knowledge they need to succeed, with training content and methods informed by practices supported through scientifically based research. While the title highlights related services personnel serving children with high-intensity needs, the broader framing signals an emphasis on workforce preparation that is aligned to what States say they need and what evidence indicates works in real service settings.

Eligibility is limited to institutions of higher education (IHEs) and private nonprofit organizations. The opportunity’s eligibility section also clarifies how a nonprofit can document its nonprofit status under 34 CFR 75.51. Acceptable documentation options include: current IRS recognition as a 501(c)(3) organization; a statement from a State taxing body or the State attorney general confirming nonprofit status and that no net earnings benefit private individuals; a certified copy of incorporation (or similar formation document) that clearly establishes nonprofit status; or documentation for a parent organization combined with a statement indicating the applicant is a local nonprofit affiliate. The listing of eligible applicant types in the source data includes public and State-controlled IHEs, private IHEs, and nonprofits both with and without 501(c)(3) status (so long as they can otherwise document nonprofit standing as allowed).

Administratively, this is a grant (funding instrument type: grant) within the Education funding activity category. The funding opportunity number is ED GRANTS 111623 001. The original closing date provided is January 31, 2024. The award ceiling is listed as $1,250,000, and the agency anticipated making about 20 awards. The notice emphasizes that the short description available in the listing is only a synopsis and that the controlling, official details are in the Federal Register application notice. That official notice is where applicants need to look for the full requirements, including any absolute or competitive priorities, the specific pre-application or application components, submission instructions, performance measures, and program contacts. It also points applicants to the Department of Education’s Revised Common Instructions for Applicants to Department of Education Discretionary Grant Programs (published December 7, 2022) for standard directions on how to obtain and submit an application.

Overall, the opportunity is best understood as workforce development funding intended to increase the number and readiness of specialized personnel who can deliver or support intensive services for children with disabilities, while pushing training programs to use research-based practices and respond directly to documented State workforce needs. Applicants considering this competition would typically be expected to propose a preparation approach that credibly builds practitioner competencies, fits the needs of high-intensity service settings, and aligns with the Department’s formal application and reporting expectations described in the Federal Register notice.
