    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.
