Opportunity Information: Apply for ED GRANTS 070519 002
This grant opportunity comes from the U.S. Department of Education, specifically the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services (OSERS) and the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP). It is a discretionary grant competition titled "Model Demonstration Projects for Early Identification of Students with Dyslexia in Elementary School" under CFDA number 84.326M. In plain terms, the competition is meant to fund a small number of projects that can demonstrate effective, research-based ways to identify dyslexia early in the elementary grades, share what works, and support better academic outcomes for children with disabilities.
The opportunity sits within a broader federal program called "Technical Assistance and Dissemination to Improve Services and Results for Children with Disabilities." The stated purpose of that larger program is to promote academic achievement and improve results for children with disabilities by offering technical assistance, supporting model demonstration projects, spreading useful information, and carrying out activities grounded in scientifically based research. In this competition, the "model demonstration" element is central: the government is looking for applicants that can implement and showcase practical approaches that other schools or systems could learn from, adopt, or scale.
A wide range of organizations are eligible to apply. Eligibility includes state, county, and local governments; special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations; nonprofit organizations (both 501(c)(3) and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status, as long as they are not institutions of higher education in those nonprofit categories); for-profit organizations (other than small businesses); and other entities as allowed under the official notice. Because the eligibility list is broad, the practical takeaway is that school systems, universities, nonprofits, tribes, and even certain for-profit entities could all potentially compete, depending on how they fit the detailed rules in the Federal Register notice.
The funding instrument is a grant, and the award ceiling is listed as $400,000. The Department expected to make about three awards, which signals a relatively competitive opportunity with a limited number of funded projects. The opportunity number is ED-GRANTS-070519-002, and the activity category is Education. The notice emphasizes that the summary provided in the posting is only a synopsis, and that the controlling requirements and details are found in the official application notice published in the Federal Register.
In terms of timing, applications were made available on July 5, 2019, and the deadline for transmittal of applications was August 5, 2019. To help applicants prepare, OSERS planned to post pre-recorded informational webinars by July 10, 2019. Those webinars were intended to function as technical assistance for interested applicants and were hosted on the Department of Education OSEP grants page. In addition, OSERS planned to open a pre-application Q and A blog by July 10, 2019, where applicants could ask questions specifically about application requirements and OSERS would post responses. That blog was scheduled to remain open until July 24, 2019, after which applicants were directed to contact the listed program contact.
The main point of contact named for questions after the blog closed was Kristen Rhoads at the U.S. Department of Education, with an office address at 400 Maryland Avenue SW, Room 5175, Potomac Center Plaza, Washington, DC 20202-5076. The notice also provides a phone number, (202) 245-6715, and an email address, Kristen.Rhoads@ed.gov, for applicant support related to the competition requirements.
Finally, the posting repeatedly stresses that applicants should rely on the official Federal Register application notice for the full set of requirements, including eligibility nuances, priorities, performance measures, submission instructions, and any pre-application or application prerequisites. It also points applicants to the Department of Education's "Common Instructions for Applicants to Department of Education Discretionary Grant Programs," published February 13, 2019 (84 FR 3768), as a key reference for how to obtain and submit an application.Apply for ED GRANTS 070519 002
