    The form will be submitted by IDAEYC, a copy will be automatically emailed to the library contact, and the library contact will upload the copy in the official grant application in Euna.

    This form will serve as the "Community Partner Form" required in the application for IDAEYC.

      Salaries/Benefits: Library staff currently on payroll should not be paid additional funds if the responsibilities of coordination or facilitation fall within regular working hours and/or are considered part of the employee’s job duties. If coordination or facilitation responsibilities would put the employee over their current contracted work week, grant funds can be used to extend the employee’s hours (not to exceed 40 hours per week).
