Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity is a discretionary federal grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), to select a single grantee to operate Early Head Start services in Laramie County, Wyoming. The goal is to fund an organization that can deliver high-quality Early Head Start programming to eligible infants and toddlers and to provide comprehensive support to their families. The program falls under CFDA 93.600 (Head Start) and is categorized within Income Security and Social Services, which reflects its focus on strengthening early childhood development outcomes while also supporting family well-being.
ACF anticipates making one award, with an estimated total annual funding amount of $498,557. The award ceiling is also listed as $498,557, indicating the maximum expected annual amount available for the selected applicant, while the award floor is $0, meaning proposals could request less than the maximum depending on the service model and scope. A cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants should expect that the budget will need to reflect some form of non-federal share consistent with Head Start/Early Head Start rules. This typically involves demonstrating the ability to meet match obligations through allowable cash or in-kind contributions, partnerships, or other eligible resources tied to program operations.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of public and private entities that can operate early childhood and family support services. Eligible applicants include public and private nonprofit organizations (including 501(c)(3) nonprofits), community-based and faith-based organizations that meet applicable requirements, and certain for-profit agencies. Government entities such as state, county, and city/township governments are eligible, as are independent school districts, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, federally recognized Native American tribal governments, small businesses, and other for-profit organizations that are not classified as small businesses. At the same time, the announcement makes clear that individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are not eligible to apply or receive an award under this competition.
The competition timeline shows the opportunity was posted on April 19, 2012, with an application due date (original and current closing date) of July 18, 2012. Applications had to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the deadline date. The listing was archived on July 19, 2012, which generally indicates the competition window has closed, though the details remain useful for understanding the scope and requirements of similar Early Head Start competitions.
