WEBCAST
How to Apply to Become an Effective
Supplemental Services Provider
Office of Innovation and Improvement
and the
Center for Faith-Based and Community Initiatives
U.S. Department of Education
On
January 8, 2002, President George W. Bush signed his
education plan, the No Child Left Behind Act, into
law. This law united both political parties behind
the principle that schools must be held accountable
for their results and that every child must learn.
As part of this law, when an economically disadvantaged
child is attending a low-performing school as determined
by the state, federal funds can be used to provide
supplemental services for that child. The term "supplemental
services" refers to extra academic help provided
to students in reading, language arts and math. This
extra help can be offered before or after school or
on weekends and can be provided by a variety of entities,
including faith-based and community organizations.
Interested organizations must apply to their state's
education agency to become a provider.
In an effort to provide technical assistance to faith-based
and community organizations, the Office of Innovation
and Improvement and the Center for Faith-Based and
Community Initiatives have produced a Webcast that
is intended to help faith-based and community organizations
apply to become approved providers of supplemental
services.
The Webcast is best seen using a high-speed Internet
connection. A local library may offer such a connection.
The Center for Faith-Based and Community Initiatives
also has developed a user friendly Toolkit
for organizations interested in applying to become
supplemental services providers. For a copy of the
complete nonregulatory guidance document, please visit:

For further information about this program, please

of Education or the Center for Faith-Based and
Community Initiatives at 202-219-1741 or faithandcommunity@ed.gov.
