The Secretary shall make special efforts, in conjunction with State efforts, to notify affected students and if applicable, their parents, who qualify for means-tested Federal benefit programs, of their potential eligibility for a maximum Federal Pell Grant under section 401 of the Higher Education Act of 1965 ( 20 U.S.C. 1070a ), and shall disseminate such informational materials as the Secretary deems appropriate.

Russell National School Lunch Act, the temporary assistance to needy families program established under part A of title IV of the Social Security Act, and the women, infants, and children program established under section 17 of the Child Nutrition Act of 1966, and other programs identified by the Secretary.
