This Web page represents a compilation of materials pertaining to the *Individuals with Disabilities Education Act* (*IDEA*) requirements regarding state maintenance of financial support for federal fiscal year 2009. *IDEA* funds are appropriated by Congress and are intended to support early intervention and special education services for infants, toddlers, children and youth with disabilities and their families. 

The materials presented here include states' requests for a one-year waiver of the *IDEA* maintenance of financial support requirement, as well as the department's response to each state request. The attachment below entitled *Process and Criteria Used to Evaluate a Request by States to Waive Maintenance of Effort (MOE) Requirements under Part B of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA)* explains the waiver process in more detail.
