Developed by CIFR, the Funding Flow Ideograph Tool (FFIT) helps users create a graphic description of their state’s fiscal support system for Part B. This customizable tool is useful for identifying sources of state funding for MFS reporting and for explaining the flow of funding for special education to stakeholders.
