Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Early Head Start Grantee - Orleans and Genesee Counties, New York" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2013 ACF OHS CH R02 0358), 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 intended to fund one organization to deliver Early Head Start services for infants and toddlers, as well as family support services, specifically for eligible residents of Orleans and Genesee Counties in New York. The program focus falls under the broader category of income security and social services, and the funding is connected to CFDA 93.600 (Head Start).
The opportunity makes up to $404,300 available per year to operate Early Head Start program services in the target counties. The estimated total funding and the award ceiling are both listed as $404,300, with an award floor of $0, which generally signals that the single anticipated award could be made up to the full amount depending on the approved scope and budget. Only one award was expected to be made under this announcement, meaning applicants would be competing to become the designated Early Head Start provider for that defined service area. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants would need to plan for and document the required non-federal share consistent with Head Start program rules.
A wide range of applicant types were eligible to apply, including public and private nonprofit organizations (including those with IRS 501(c)(3) status), community-based and faith-based organizations that meet federal eligibility requirements, and for-profit agencies. Government entities such as state, county, city or township governments, independent school districts, public housing authorities, tribal governments (federally recognized), and public or state-controlled institutions of higher education were also listed as eligible, along with private institutions of higher education and small businesses. At the same time, the announcement clearly excluded individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships from eligibility, so proposals had to come from established organizations that fit within the eligible categories.
The notice was posted on April 19, 2012, and applications were due by July 18, 2012. For electronic submissions, the deadline was 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The opportunity was archived on July 19, 2012, reflecting that it is no longer open, but the summary details remain useful for understanding the scope and structure of the funding. Applicants seeking more program-specific guidance were directed to contact the OHS Operations Center by email at DRS@headstartinfo.org for additional information. For technical problems accessing the full announcement or submitting an application electronically, the ACF Applications Help Desk was provided as the support contact at appsupport@acf.hhs.gov.
