WASHINGTON, D.C. – The University of Dayton will receive new federal resources to improve educational services for children with disabilities. U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) announced today that a competitive grant of $259,320 from the U.S. Department of Education’s State Technical Assistance Project was awarded to the University of Dayton.

“We must pay special attention to making sure that children with disabilities have access to the top-notch educators and effective teaching practices that they deserve,” Brown said. “This funding will help the University of Dayton continue its important work.”

The State Technical Assistance Project promotes academic achievement and improves results for children with disabilities by providing technical assistance and useful information, and implementing activities that are supported by scientifically based research.
