Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Early Head Start Grantee - Fayette County, Ohio" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2013-ACF-OHS-CH-R05-0412), was released by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF). It is a discretionary grant under CFDA 93.600 (Head Start) intended to fund an organization to operate Early Head Start services for eligible infants and toddlers, along with comprehensive supports for their families, specifically for residents of Fayette County, Ohio. The program focus falls under income security and social services, reflecting Early Head Start's role in strengthening early development and family stability through high-quality early childhood programming and family-centered services.
ACF anticipated making one award, with estimated total funding of $605,733 per year. The award ceiling is also $605,733, while the award floor is listed as $0, indicating the maximum annual amount available and that partial awards are not explicitly guaranteed. The announcement notes that cost sharing or matching is required, so applicants would need to plan for non-federal contributions in accordance with Head Start/Early Head Start rules and the terms laid out in the full funding announcement.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of entities that can operate community programs, such as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status, state and local governments (including county and city/township governments), independent school districts, public and state-controlled and private institutions of higher education, public housing authorities, federally recognized tribal governments, and for-profit organizations other than small businesses (with small businesses also listed among eligible applicants).

At the same time, individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are not eligible to apply or receive an award under this opportunity.
The opportunity was posted on May 16, 2012, with an application deadline of August 14, 2012. Applications had to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The listing indicates an archive date of August 15, 2012, meaning the competition is historical and no longer open, but the summary still reflects how ACF structured the competition for selecting the Early Head Start provider in Fayette County.
For applicants seeking guidance or clarification (during the open period), ACF directed interested parties to email the Office of Head Start (OHS) Operations Center at DRS@headstartinfo.org for additional information about the services and competition. For technical issues accessing the announcement or submitting materials electronically, applicants were instructed to contact the ACF Applications Help Desk at appsupport@acf.hhs.gov.
