Abstract:
This paper intends to analyze the similarities and dissimilarities between the Emergency School Aid Act and the Technical Assistance for Student Assignment Plans grant program. Both grants intended to incentivize integration by providing funding in the form of an inducement. However, these inducements were implemented under different circumstances that may have led to the variation in implementation among the grantees of these two programs. This paper analyzes the factors that may have influenced implementation and provides recommendations for incentivizing post-PICS integration efforts.
