Justification: The FY 2023 and 2024 appropriations for Maternal and Child Health Block Grant Special Projects of Regional and National Significance increased funding for the ITCP, compared to the FY 2022 enacted level. A Congressional Report accompanying the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024 (Pub. L. 118-47) designated funding "to continue and expand research-based Infant-Toddler Court Teams to change child welfare practices to improve wellbeing for infants, toddlers, and their families" (Senate Report 118-84). Consistent with Congressional intent, HRSA plans to use this funding to continue, enhance, and expand teams currently funded by ITCP State Awards (HRSA-22-073). Supplemental awards will be used for project activities within the scope of the current ITCP-State Awards funding opportunity (HRSA-22-073). HRSA is awarding a total of approximately $2.7 million to the 12 current ITCP-State Award recipients noted in table 1. Supplemental funding for similar activities may be considered in future years, depending on availability of funding for the activity and satisfactory performance.

Carole Johnson,

Administrator.
