Core Funding and Leveraging Funds
• AIDD Administers the UCEDD grant Program
• UCEDDs apply to AIDD for core funding
• UCEDDs submit a 5-Year Plan to AIDD

funding to leverage funding

sources to expand scope of efforts
– UCEDDs do this by getting other grants and contracts
What Sets a UCEDD Apart?

– 2-way relationship
– Infrastructure for leveraging

by each UCEDD according to state needs, Center
expertise, partnerships, etc.

• Training
• Service
• Research
• Information Sharing
