What are the ARRA funds for the IDEA?
These funds are commonly referred to as the IDEA, Part B, ARRA of 2009 or ARRA IDEA stimulus funds. The ARRA IDEA 611 and ARRA IDEA 619 funds are new one-time federal fiscal year 2009 dollars that support allowable IDEA related services or activities. IMPORTANT NOTE: These funds are in addition to the regular 2009 IDEA Part B awards (IDEA Grants to States and Preschool). Together the ARRA IDEA grants and the regular IDEA grants are the total fiscal year (FY) 2009 Part B Grants to States and Preschool Grants allocations.
