INDIANA – Indiana’s Family and Social Services Administration on Tuesday announced its office early childhood and out-of-school learning had received a $7 million grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

The grant supports strategic planning and a formal evaluation of Indiana’s birth-through-age-5 early childhood education programs.
