The Department of Educations regulations for The Rehabilitation Act

FAPE was created by IDEA but it is also a large part of The Rehabilitation Act as Section 504 declares all federal agencies receiving funds are required to follow any law enacted by the federal  government. Additionally, the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations also requires each title to implement and follow additional regulations specific to their area in accordance with all public laws. This means because United States Title 34 executes supplementary laws relevant to their title and are federally funded, they are allowed to establish their own guidelines for FAPE according to Section 504. 

The reason the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 must follow FAPE from IDEA

Juvenile justice rehabilitation centers are required to meet FAPE standards for all students with disabilities in these facilities.
