U.S. Department of Education Awards $1.2 Million to Education and Health Researchers

The U.S. Department of Education has awarded $1.25 million to three researchers at the University of Arkansas's College of Education and Health Professions. This funding is designated to improve outcomes for young children with high-intensity needs in early childhood special education through a five-year project called "Partners for Authentic Learning and Language (PALL)." The project aims to recruit 36 students from high-poverty areas of Arkansas to pursue master's degrees in relevant fields.
