Answer
Yes. Funds from the voucher program may be used to pay for the salaries, expenses and training of staff who administer the voucher program. Costs must be properly allocated to all benefiting programs, and the allocation of such costs must be included in a State's approved cost allocation plan or a Tribe’s cost allocation methodology.
