Nearly $39 million in federal coronavirus relief money has been released by the State Board of Education. This money can be used to support exceptional children’s programs and to purchase online curricula to support blended learning.
Additionally, it can be used to purchase educational technology (including hardware, software, and connectivity) for students served by the LEA – which can also include assistive technology for disabled students.
In a nutshell: there is funding available for your AT Team which could be used to procure AAC equipment! Here in North Carolina you can learn specifics here, and apply for your district here.
If you are in a different state, you can probably find application information by googling "cares act funding for (your STATE) school districts.
Money left untapped goes back to DC. Good luck!!
