Opportunity Summary:

The Early Head Start Grantee - Wayne County, Indiana funding opportunity is a discretionary grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), under CFDA 93.600 (Head Start). Its purpose is to fund an organization to deliver Early Head Start services for eligible infants and toddlers and to support their families specifically in Wayne County, Indiana. The program focus falls under the broader category of income security and social services, reflecting Early Head Start's role in strengthening early development, family well-being, and access to comprehensive supports for very young children.

ACF expects to make one award through this announcement. The estimated annual funding available is $842,444, which is also listed as the award ceiling, meaning the selected applicant would be funded up to that amount per year to operate the Early Head Start program in the county. The award floor is listed as $0, which is a technical listing that does not change the practical intent that the competition is for a single funded grantee. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, so the applicant should be prepared to document and meet non-federal share expectations consistent with Head Start grant rules.

A wide range of entities are eligible to apply, including public and private nonprofit organizations (including 501(c)(3) nonprofits), community-based and faith-based organizations that meet program eligibility rules, and for-profit agencies. Eligible public entities include state, county, and city or township governments; independent school districts; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; and tribal governments that are federally recognized. Higher education institutions, both public and private, may also be eligible, as well as small businesses and other for-profit organizations (other than small businesses) as indicated in the eligibility list. Individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are not eligible to compete for or receive an award under this announcement.

Key dates in the posting indicate the opportunity was posted on April 19, 2012, with an application due date (original and current closing date) of July 18, 2012. Applications submitted electronically had to be received no later than 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The archive date is July 19, 2012, which signals the announcement moved into an archived status after the closing date.

For applicants seeking more details about program expectations, service delivery requirements, or competition-related questions, the announcement points interested parties to the Office of Head Start (OHS) Operations Center via email at DRS@headstartinfo.org.
