The Secretary has awarded a contract to the Central Susquehanna Intermediate Unit (CSIU) to identify, recruit, and serve migratory children in Connecticut, Rhode Island, and West Virginia (collectively, the ``target States''), three states that no longer choose to receive Migrant Education Program (MEP) funding to provide educational programs to migratory children. The MEBPSD consists of records that the contractor needs to collect on eligible migrant students in order to carry out migrant education activities that the target States no longer provide.
