Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Early Head Start Grantee - Montgomery County, Maryland" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2013 ACF OHS CH R03 0330), 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 competition intended to select one grantee to deliver Early Head Start services for infants and toddlers and to support their families in Montgomery County, Maryland. The program focus falls under the broader federal activity area of income security and social services, and it is associated with CFDA 93.600 (Head Start).
The award is designed to fund direct Early Head Start program operations in the community, meaning applicants are expected to provide comprehensive early childhood development services for children from birth to age three, alongside family-centered supports that align with Early Head Start performance expectations. The announcement specifies that approximately $1,865,519 in annual funding is available for this purpose, with an estimated total funding amount of $1,865,519 and an award ceiling of $1,865,519. The award floor is listed as $0, which generally signals that there is no guaranteed minimum award level beyond what is justified and approved through the competitive process and budget review. ACF anticipates making one award, so applicants are competing for a single grantee slot serving the designated service area.
Eligibility is broad and includes many organization types that typically operate early childhood and human services programs. Eligible applicants include public and private nonprofit organizations (including 501(c)(3) nonprofits), community-based and faith-based organizations that meet the requirements, for-profit organizations (including small businesses and other for-profit entities), state and local government entities (including county governments, city or township governments, and state governments), independent school districts, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, and federally recognized Native American tribal governments. The notice clarifies that individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are not eligible to apply or receive an award under this announcement. The opportunity also includes a cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the eventual grantee should be prepared to contribute non-federal resources consistent with Head Start/Early Head Start matching rules and the specific terms described in the full funding announcement.
Key dates indicate the opportunity was posted and created on May 16, 2012, with an application deadline of August 14, 2012. Applications were required to be submitted electronically no later than 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The archive date is August 15, 2012, reflecting that the competition is no longer active, but the details remain relevant for historical reference or for understanding the structure of similar ACF Head Start funding competitions.
