Opportunity Summary:

The Early Head Start Replacement Grantee opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2010-ACF-OHS-CH-R08-0092) is a discretionary federal grant announcement from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), focused on continuing Early Head Start services for infants, toddlers, and their families in the service area tied to Big Horn, Hot Springs, and Washakie Counties in Wyoming. The core purpose is to select one new provider to replace the prior grantee, Northwest Community Action Program, so that Early Head Start services in the community can continue without a long-term disruption. The program area falls under Income Security and Social Services and is connected to the Head Start CFDA program number 93.600.

Funding available under this announcement is estimated at $371,891 per year, with an award ceiling of $371,891 and an award floor of $0, and ACF expects to make one award. The prior grant supported a total enrollment of 48 infants and toddlers (and their families), and applicants are essentially expected to propose a plan capable of operating at a similar scale while meeting Early Head Start program requirements. A cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning the selected grantee will need to meet the applicable non-federal share rules associated with Head Start/Early Head Start funding.

Eligibility is aimed at local organizations that can directly operate Early Head Start services in the community, including local public or private non-profit organizations (including faith-based and community organizations) as well as local for-profit organizations. The listing of eligible applicant types includes a wide range of entities (such as tribal governments and organizations, state and local governments, school districts, higher education institutions, nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status, and certain business entities), but the eligibility language emphasizes local capacity to provide services to infants, toddlers, and families residing in the relevant Wyoming service area. Individuals and foreign entities are explicitly not eligible to receive awards under this announcement.

Key dates for this competition include a posted and creation date of March 24, 2010, and an application closing date of May 24, 2010 (with the archive date listed as June 23, 2010). Applicants submitting through Grants.gov were required to submit no later than 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Applicants were directed to call the Office of Head Start (OHS) Operations Center at (866) 796-1591 to request pre-application materials and other guidance, indicating that ACF intended to provide prospective applicants with resources to prepare a compliant proposal. For technical issues accessing the full announcement, the contact provided is the ACF Applications Help Desk at appsupport@acf.hhs.gov.

Overall, this is a replacement-grantee competition designed to keep Early Head Start services in place for a defined Wyoming area by selecting a single qualified local provider, funded at roughly $372,000 annually, to serve about 48 enrolled infants and toddlers and support their families under standard Early Head Start expectations and federal grant requirements.
