Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity (HHS-2013-ACF-OHS-CH-R04-0376) is a discretionary grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), to select organizations to operate Early Head Start services for infants, toddlers, and their families in Talladega, Calhoun, and Coosa Counties in Alabama. The program focus falls under the broader public-service area of income security and social services, and it is tied to CFDA 93.600 (Head Start). In practical terms, ACF is looking for a local provider (or providers) that can deliver comprehensive Early Head Start programming to eligible families in these counties, consistent with Head Start and Early Head Start performance standards.
ACF indicates that approximately $1,553,046 in annual funding is available for this service area, with an award ceiling listed at the same amount and an award floor of $0. The announcement anticipates making up to two awards, which suggests ACF may fund one or more organizations depending on how applicants propose to serve the area and how the agency structures the final service delivery plan. As with many Head Start-related awards, the opportunity includes a cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the selected grantee(s) should expect to meet non-federal share obligations in accordance with Head Start rules and the terms described in the full funding announcement.
Eligibility is broad and includes a range of public and private entities that can demonstrate the capacity to administer an Early Head Start program. Eligible applicants include nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education), small businesses, for-profit organizations (other than small businesses), state and local governments (including county and city/township governments), independent school districts, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, institutions of higher education (public/state-controlled and private), and federally recognized Native American tribal governments. The announcement specifically notes that faith-based and community-based organizations are eligible as long as they meet the standard eligibility requirements. At the same time, it clearly excludes individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships from competing for or receiving awards under this opportunity.
The timeline included in the source data shows the opportunity was posted May 16, 2012, with an application due date of August 14, 2012. Applications had to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The record reflects an archive date of August 15, 2012, indicating the competition has closed, but the summary still provides a useful snapshot of what ACF sought from applicants in this region and the scale of funding involved.
For applicant support and logistics, the opportunity lists two points of contact depending on the need. Organizations seeking program-related information can email the Office of Head Start (OHS) Operations Center at DRS@headstartinfo.org.
