I. Funding, Programs, and Students

Title I, Part D, Subpart 1 provides supplemental funds for education programs for youth who are neglected or delinquent. Subpart 1 funds are awarded directly to State education agencies, which then award subgrants to State agencies.

Funding Allocation, Number of Programs and Students Served

Program Information	2014–15	2015–16	2016–17
Subpart 1 Funding
United States	$46,423,650.00	$47,614,000.00	$46,423,650.00
Number of Programs
United States	673	671	682
Number of Students Served
United States	79,084	70,983	67,353

II. Program Types

States may use Subpart 1 funds to assist educational programs for youth who are neglected and programs for youth in juvenile detention, juvenile corrections, and adult corrections facilities.

Programs for youth who are neglected serve youth placed in public or private residential facilities due to abandonment, neglect, or the death of their parents or guardians. Programs for youth who are delinquent serve youth in public or private institutions (e.g., detention or corrections facilities) who have been adjudicated delinquent or who are otherwise in need of supervision.

III. Students Served

All State education agencies must provide data to the U.S. Department of Education (ED) on the students served in Part D programs, including information on gender, race/ethnicity, age, and disability and Limited English Proficiency (LEP) status.

Demographics

Nationally, in school year (SY) 2016–17, the majority (69 percent) of students benefitting from Title I, Part D funds in State agency programs were between the ages of 14 and 18, followed by 19–21–year–olds (28 percent), and students under the age of 14 (4 percent). Students were predominantly male (86 percent). These percentages reflect the national trends in age and gender also observed in SY 2014–15 and 2015–16. The racial/ethnic makeup of students in Title I, Part D, Subpart 1 in SY 2016–17 across the nation is presented below.

Race/Ethnicity Data

Student Participation by Race/Ethnicity

Race/Ethnicity	United States
Race/Ethnicity	2014–15		2015–16		2016–17
American Indian or Alaska Native	1,936	2%	1,709	2%	1,094	2%
Asian	440	1%	417	1%	372	1%
Black or African American	35,550	45%	30,596	43%	31,001	46%
Hispanic or Latino	13,064	17%	12,697	18%	11,624	17%
Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander	408	1%	268	0%	316	0%
White	26,075	33%	23,283	33%	20,840	31%
Two or More Races	1,611	2%	2,013	3%	2,032	3%
Other	0	0%	0	0%	0	0%
Total	0	100%	0	100%	0	100%

States may not have provided racial/ethnic data for every student. Therefore, the number of students by race/ethnicity may be lower than the number of students served. Due to rounding, percentages may not total to 100%.

Student Subgroups

As of SY 2012–13, States began reporting data on the number of students with disabilities and the number of students who have LEP. The identification of these students should align with the State classification for Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) for students with disabilities and with Title III of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act for students who have LEP.

Student Subgroup Data

Student Participation by Subgroup

Student Subgroups	United States
Student Subgroups	2014–15		2015–16		2016–17

LEP Students	4,783	6%	2,044	3%	1,687	3%

IV. Academic Outcomes

All State education agencies must report on a series of academic and vocational outcomes attained by students enrolled in programs that receive Title I, Part D funds. The figures below feature four of the key performance measures: earning high school course credits, obtaining a high school diploma, enrolling in a GED program and earning a GED. These figures reflect the percentage of age-eligible students who attain these outcomes while enrolled in, or shortly after leaving, an educational program funded by Title I, Part D, Subpart 1.

Academic Outcomes Achieved While in Facility

*The Earned High School Course Credits indicator does not include students in adult corrections facilities.

V. Academic Performance: Reading and Mathematics

ED requires that States report the pre- and posttest performances in reading and mathematics of long-term students who were enrolled in a program for 90 consecutive calendar days or longer. All State education agencies provide data on the progress (i.e., grade-level change) that long-term students demonstrate on pre- and posttests in reading and mathematics.

Definitions and Presentation of Data

Adult corrections: An adult corrections institution is a facility in which persons, including youth under 21 years of age, are confined as a result of conviction for a criminal offense.

Age-eligible: This term refers to the age range of students who could reasonably be expected to achieve a given outcome. For example, the age-eligible range for earning a high school diploma or GED is 16- to 21-years old. ED uses ranges for each outcome intended to capture the majority of students served across the country, but eligibility ranges may vary from State to State.

Juvenile detention: A juvenile detention facility is a shorter term institution that provides care to children who require secure custody pending court adjudication, court disposition, or execution of a court order, or that provides care to children after commitment.

Juvenile corrections: A juvenile corrections institution is a public or private residential facility, other than a foster home, for children and youth who are delinquent. This type of facility offers care for children and youth who have been adjudicated delinquent or are in need of supervision.

Long-term: Students who are enrolled in a program for 90 consecutive calendar days or longer.

Neglected programs: Neglected programs offer care to children and youth who are neglected. These programs are conducted in public or private residential facilities, other than a foster home, that are operated primarily for the care of children who have been committed to the institution or voluntarily placed there under applicable State law due to abandonment, neglect, or death of their parents or guardians.

For more information on Title I, Part D data context and methodology, please see the NDTAC Title I, Part D data information Web page. Some of the values that appear on the State Fast Facts pages may not fully align with the values reported in the CSPR. NDTAC provides extensive technical assistance to Title I, Part D programs and has in some instances clarified data based on information provided directly from States. Because of this and differing analytic approaches, NDTAC's Fast Facts pages may not fully align with the raw data in the data sources.
