State-Based Funding Guides for Special Education Leaders

Rivermont Schools is proud to partner with New Story to create a Virginia Special Education and Mental Health Funding Guide! Finding the best resources for students is a common challenge for leaders in special education. This guide exists as a central resource for special education leaders in Virginia, listing several critical Virginia-based funding opportunities and insights. Whether you're looking to understand how to maximize allocations, access state and federal grants, or navigate application processes, this guide is here to simplify the journey.

Why These Guides Matter

Funding is a critical part of special education programs. For many, it can be overwhelming and difficult to determine where to begin. With funding resources clearly laid out and described in this guide, special education leaders will gain:

Comprehensive Overview of Funding Sources: The guide consolidates key information about federal, state, and local funding programs, such as special education grants, mental health funding, and Medicaid School-Based Services. This helps special education leaders quickly identify and access financial resources to support their programs, enabling more effective allocation of funds to meet student needs.

Insights into Policy and Budget Increases: With details about Virginia’s 2024-2025 budget increases, the guide highlights critical opportunities for expanded support in special education and mental health services. Leaders can leverage this information to advocate for their schools and implement evidence-based interventions tailored to their student populations.

Support for Strategic Decision-Making: The guide serves as a practical tool for leaders to plan and prioritize initiatives, such as professional development, telepresence technology, or afterschool programs. By understanding available funding opportunities, leaders can ensure compliance, foster innovation, and create environments that promote both academic and emotional growth for their students.

Being able to easily compare options will make the decision-making process simpler and clearer. Regardless of the specific funding you are looking for, this guide will make weighing and discovering options easier than ever, all to the benefit of the students.  

The Virginia special education funding guide is now available on New Story’s website. These free resources are an essential tool for school and district leaders dedicated to ensuring every student has access to the support and opportunities they deserve.
