proposes to take to ensure equitable access to, and participation in, its federal assisted program(s) for

discretion in developing the required description(s). The statute highlights six types of barriers that
can impede equitable access or participation: gender, race, national origin, color, disability, or age;
Section 427 is not intended to replace the requirements of civil rights statutes, but rather to ensure that,
in designing programs, applicants for federal funds address equity concerns that may affect the ability
of certain potential beneficiaries to fully participate in the program and to achieve to high standards;
and consistent with the program requirements and its approved application, an applicant may use the
federal funds awarded it to eliminate barriers it identified. For details refer to URL:
http://www.ed.gov/fund/grant/apply/appforms/gepa427.pdf

line application, applicants are required to maintain documentation at the local level which

description of the process to ensure equitable access to, and participation of students, teachers, and
other program beneficiaries with special needs

Upon completion of the on-line application, each
applicant will be required to submit confirmation of compliance with this requirement. Assurances,
including GEPA requirements are part of the
print application
function of the on-line application.
Equitable Services for Private School Participation

description of collaboration during the design and development, and the programs that will be

the applicant must provide a detailed plan of action for providing consultation for equitable
services to private school children and teachers within the local education agency (ies) service
