Recovery Planning Framework
A Roadmap for Effective Use of Federal Funding
The Funding
The federal government has provided three rounds of education recovery funding: the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security Act of March 2020, the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of December 2020, and the American Rescue Plan of March 2021. The major funding streams are ESSER (Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief fund), HEER (Higher Education Emergency Relief fund) and GEER (Governor’s Education Emergency Relief fund). Funding for non-public schools was also provided in the latter two measures through Emergency Assistance to Non-Public Schools (EANS).
