For the 2024 federal fiscal year ending Sept. 30, 2024, the Title I, Part C Migrant Education Program was funded at $375,626,000, the same level as in the 2021, 2022, and 2023 federal fiscal years. This funding became available to states on July 1, 2024, for use in the 2024-2025 school year.
Congress has not yet passed the final 2025 federal fiscal year appropriations.
The National Association of State Directors of Migrant Education (NASDME) is advocating for an increase to $435 million for the 2025 federal fiscal year. This sum has the backing of the national Hispanic Education Coalition and its member group.​​​
