ACF anticipates making one award under this announcement. The estimated total funding available is $1,410,808 per year, and the award ceiling is also $1,410,808 (with an award floor listed as $0, meaning funding levels can depend on the final award decision and application responsiveness). The activity category is listed as Income Security and Social Services, reflecting the program's focus on strengthening family well-being alongside early learning and development. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants should be prepared to document how they will meet any required non-federal share consistent with Head Start/Early Head Start rules and the full announcement details.
