§ 316.24 - What additional factors does the Secretary consider?

Latest version.

In addition to the criteria in § 316.22, the Secretary considers the following factors in making an award:

(a) Geographic distribution. In selecting projects for awards for parent centers under § 316.3(a), the Secretary ensures that, to the greatest extent possible, awards are distributed geographically, on a State or regional basis, throughout all the States and serve parents of children with disabilities in both urban and rural areas.

(b) Unserved areas. In selecting projects for parent centers under § 316.3(a) and experimental centers under § 316.3(b), the Secretary gives priority to applications that propose to serve unserved areas.
