Please review the official application notice for pre-application and application requirements, application submission information, performance measures, priorities and program contact information. Note: On March 25, 2008, we published a Notice Inviting Applications for New Awards for FY 2008 in the Federal Register (73 FR 15744) inviting applications for CFDA Number 84.326C using the Technical Assistance and Dissemination To Improve Services and Results for Children With Disabilities--State Technical Assistance Projects To Improve Services and Results for Children Who Are Deaf-Blind priority. We invited applications in that notice for projects in all 50 States, the District of Columbia, the Virgin Islands, and the outlying areas and the Freely Associated States (FAS) of the Pacific Basin. No applications were submitted to serve the District of Columbia or the Virgin Islands and the single application that was submitted to serve Puerto Rico proposed a budget that exceeded the amount allocated to that area and, therefore, the application was not eligible for review. Through this notice, we invite applications for another competition for State Technical Assistance Projects To Improve Services and Results for Children Who Are Deaf-Blind to serve the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Purpose of Program: The purpose of the Technical Assistance and Dissemination To Improve Services and Results For Children With Disabilities program is to promote academic achievement and to improve results for children with disabilities by providing technical assistance (TA), supporting model demonstration projects, disseminating useful information, and implementing activities that are supported by scientifically based research. Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) Number: 84.326C.
