What is this bond?

The Ohio Autism Scholarship Program bond is a financial guarantee required for certain providers participating in the state's educational scholarship program. It ensures that the educational provider faithfully manages the scholarship funds and complies with the program's rules. If the provider mismanages funds or violates program terms, the bond provides a mechanism for the state to recover financial losses.

Who needs it?

Non-public educational institutions and service providers seeking approval to participate in the Ohio Autism Scholarship Program typically need this bond. The requirement generally applies to providers who handle state-issued scholarship funds on behalf of eligible students. Applicants should verify their specific bonding needs directly with the Ohio Department of Education.

Why is it required?

The state requires this bond to protect public funds and ensure accountability among participating educational providers. It acts as a safety net, guaranteeing that providers deliver the promised services and properly allocate taxpayer money. Ultimately, it safeguards the integrity of the scholarship program and protects the interests of participating students and the state.
