Universal PreKindergarten Mixed Delivery Planning Grant


Note: The due date for the request for data has passed. This page is for reference and administration of funding.

The purpose of this grant program is to expand access universally to preschool programs for three- and four-year-old children across the state through a mixed-delivery system. The program funds local planning councils (LPCs) and resource and referral (R&R) agencies to support the mixed delivery system of Universal PreKindergarten (UPK). The grant focus is to support the relationship building between the local education agencies (LEAs), county office of education (COE), the LPC, and the R&R. The grantee will partner with the LEA and COE to align plans for the expansion of UPK.
