Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Early Head Start Grantee - Cities of Altadena, Pasadena, and Glendale in Los Angeles County, California," is a discretionary grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) through the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), under the Head Start program (CFDA 93.600). The purpose is to select one or more organizations to operate Early Head Start services for eligible infants and toddlers, as well as to support their families, specifically for residents of Altadena, Pasadena, and Glendale in Los Angeles County.
ACF made approximately $2,467,555 in annual funding available for this service area, with an expected two awards. The award ceiling is listed as $2,467,555 and the award floor is $0, which generally means applicants can propose budgets up to the full amount available, depending on the scope of services proposed and the number of awards ACF decides to make. The funding instrument is a grant, and the program area is categorized under Income Security and Social Services. A cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning applicants should be prepared to meet required non-federal share expectations consistent with Head Start rules.
Eligibility is broad and includes many common public and private entities that operate human services programs. Eligible applicants include public or private nonprofit organizations (including community-based and faith-based groups that meet requirements), for-profit organizations (including those other than small businesses, as well as small businesses), and various government entities such as state governments, county governments, and city or township governments. Independent school districts and certain housing authorities are also listed as eligible, along with tribal governments that are federally recognized. While faith-based organizations are explicitly allowed to apply if they meet eligibility standards, certain applicants are not eligible, including individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships.
