Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Early Head Start Grantee - Benton, Boone, Fountain, Montgomery, Parke, Vermillion, and Warren Counties, Indiana," was issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) through the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), under the Office of Head Start. It is a discretionary grant competition intended to select a single organization to operate Early Head Start services for eligible infants and toddlers and their families living in the seven listed Indiana counties. The program focus falls under the broader category of income security and social services, and it is tied to CFDA number 93.600 (Head Start).
The funding made available through this announcement is estimated at $635,694 per year, with an award ceiling of $635,694 and an award floor of $0. ACF anticipated making one award, meaning applicants were competing for one grantee slot to deliver services across the defined service area. Like many Head Start and Early Head Start awards, the opportunity includes a cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were expected to contribute non-federal resources consistent with program rules and the specific instructions in the full funding announcement.
A wide range of applicant types were eligible to apply, as long as they met the program and legal eligibility standards. Eligible entities included public and private nonprofit organizations (including 501(c)(3) nonprofits), community-based and faith-based organizations, and for-profit agencies. Governmental entities could also apply, including state governments, county governments, and city or township governments, as well as independent school districts and public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities. Institutions of higher education were listed as eligible in both private and public/state-controlled categories, and federally recognized Native American tribal governments were also eligible. At the same time, the announcement made clear that individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships were not eligible to compete for or receive an award under this funding opportunity.
The purpose of the award is to provide comprehensive Early Head Start programming for infants and toddlers and to support their families. While the short description does not list every service component, Early Head Start grants generally fund a range of early learning and development supports, family engagement services, and health-related coordination for enrolled children, consistent with Head Start program requirements. The emphasis in this announcement is on ensuring that eligible young children and families in Benton, Boone, Fountain, Montgomery, Parke, Vermillion, and Warren Counties have access to Early Head Start services delivered by a qualified local provider.
