Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Early Head Start Grantee - Madison County, Indiana" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2014-ACF-OHS-CH-R05-0724), was released 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 aimed at expanding or maintaining Early Head Start services for eligible infants, toddlers, pregnant women, and their families living in Madison County, Indiana. The program focus falls under the broader category of income security and social services, reflecting Early Head Start's role in supporting early childhood development, family well-being, and comprehensive services during a critical stage of life.
ACF planned to make one award under this announcement, with an estimated total annual funding amount of $665,309. The award floor and ceiling are both listed as $665,309, meaning the single grant award was expected to be issued at that exact annual amount. A cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants would need to contribute non-federal resources consistent with Head Start grant rules. The funding is tied to CFDA number 93.600 (Head Start), which is the standard federal assistance listing associated with Head Start and Early Head Start programming.
Eligibility for this competition is broad and includes many types of domestic organizations and public entities. Eligible applicants include public or private nonprofit organizations (including those with 501(c)(3) status and certain nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status, depending on their structure), for-profit organizations other than small businesses, small businesses, state and local governments (including county, city or township governments), public housing authorities, independent school districts, and public or private institutions of higher education. Federally recognized Native American tribal governments are also listed as eligible. Faith-based and community-based organizations are explicitly encouraged to apply as long as they meet the standard eligibility requirements, and applicants are directed to review ACF policy guidance related to grants for faith-based organizations. 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 funding opportunity.
Key dates show that the opportunity was posted on July 23, 2013, with an application deadline of October 21, 2013. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The record indicates the opportunity was later archived on November 20, 2013, meaning it is no longer open for competition, but the details remain useful for understanding the funding scope and requirements for similar future announcements.
