Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Early Head Start Grantee - Franklin County, Ohio," is a discretionary federal funding 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 organization to operate Early Head Start services for eligible infants, toddlers, and their families living in Franklin County, Ohio. Early Head Start typically focuses on comprehensive early childhood development and family support for children from birth to age three, emphasizing high-quality early learning, health and developmental screening, family engagement, and connections to community resources.
The opportunity makes approximately $1,581,842 available each year, and ACF expects to make a single award. The funding ceiling is listed at $1,581,842 and the floor is $0, meaning an applicant could propose up to the full available amount, depending on the program design and approved budget.

A wide range of entity types may apply, reflecting the community-based nature of Early Head Start. Eligible applicants include public and private nonprofit organizations (including 501(c)(3) nonprofits), community-based and faith-based organizations that meet the eligibility requirements, for-profit organizations (with the exception that "small businesses" are separately listed as eligible), and various governmental entities such as county governments, city or township governments, and state governments.
