    Justification: The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023, included 
additional funds to support Infant Toddler Courts. Guidance provided in 
House Report 117-403 specified a ``funding increase of $5,000,000 above 
the fiscal year 2022 enacted level to existing court team grantees,'' 
which HRSA understands is intended to include support for teams 
currently funded by ITCP State awards (HRSA-22-073). The supplemental 
awards align with the current ITCP--State awards funding opportunity 
(HRSA-22-073) and program purpose to continue and expand research-based 
infant-toddler court teams to improve child welfare practices and 
enhance the early developmental health and well-being of infants, 
toddlers, and their families. HRSA is awarding a total of approximately 
$2.7 million to the 12
