From the US Departments of Education and Health and Human Services:

ED and HHS have frequently collaborated to assist agencies in improving and aligning their policies and programs to better serve students in foster care. In June 2016, following the reauthorization of the ESEA, ED and HHS released joint non-regulatory guidance (2016 guidance) on the implementation of the Title I educational stability provisions. This guidance was developed to guide State educational agencies (SEAs), local educational agencies (LEAs), and child welfare agencies in their collaborative efforts to fully implement the Title I educational stability provisions.

This 2024 Guidance supercedes the 2016 joint guidance.
