McKinney-Vento-Education for Homeless Children and Youths
The U.S. Department of Education (ED) allocates McKinney-Vento funding annually to states based on the state’s proportion of the Title I, Part A federal allocation.
States must subgrant funds competitively to school districts within the state to be used for program implementation at the district level.
• States must distribute no less than 75% of its annual McKinney-Vento allocation
to local school districts in subgrants; a few minimally-funded states may reserve
up to 50% of their allocation.
• Subgrants are awarded competitively based on need and the quality of the
subgrant application.

subgrant funds as outlined in the McKinney-Vento Act
