Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Early Head Start Grantee - Huntsville, Madison, and Limestone Counties, Alabama" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2014-ACF-OHS-CH-R04-0767), was issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), under the Office of Head Start. It is a discretionary grant in the area of income security and social services (CFDA 93.600, Head Start). The purpose of the funding is to select a single grantee to deliver Early Head Start program services for eligible infants and toddlers, as well as services for pregnant women and families living in Huntsville and across Madison and Limestone Counties in Alabama. In practical terms, applicants are expected to operate an Early Head Start program that provides comprehensive early childhood development and family support services consistent with Early Head Start requirements, focused on very young children and expectant families.
ACF planned to make one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $734,475 per year. The award amount is fixed in this announcement: the award floor and ceiling are both $734,475, meaning the intended annual award is not presented as a range but as a specific amount. The opportunity also includes a cost sharing or matching requirement, so the selected grantee would need to meet applicable non-federal share obligations consistent with Head Start/Early Head Start rules and the details in the full announcement.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of entities, reflecting the program's community-based nature. Eligible applicants include public and private nonprofit organizations (including 501(c)(3) nonprofits and certain nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status), community-based organizations, faith-based organizations, for-profit organizations (other than small businesses), small businesses, institutions of higher education (public and private), state and local government entities (including county governments, city or township governments, and independent school districts), public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, and federally recognized tribal governments. The announcement specifically notes that faith-based organizations are eligible if they meet the standard requirements, and it directs such organizations to ACF policy guidance on grants to faith-based organizations. At the same time, it clearly excludes individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships from competing for or receiving an award under this funding notice.
The posting date and creation date for the opportunity were July 23, 2013. The application deadline (original and current closing date) was October 21, 2013, and the notice emphasizes that electronically submitted applications had to be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The archive date listed is November 20, 2013, indicating the opportunity is no longer open, but the details remain useful for understanding the program scope and grant structure.
