Opportunity Summary:
The Early Head Start Replacement Grantee opportunity for Moca and San Sebastian, Puerto Rico is a competitive federal grant announced by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), through the Office of Head Start. The purpose is to select one new grantee to continue delivering Early Head Start services for infants and toddlers and their families in the municipalities of San Sebastian and Moca. This is a replacement grant, meaning the funding is intended to maintain continuity of services previously provided in this area by the former grantee (the Municipalities of San Sebastian and Moca), rather than to launch an entirely new initiative or expand to a new service territory.
Funding is available as an annual award totaling $595,637, with an award ceiling of $595,637 and an award floor of $0. ACF expected to make one award under this announcement. The prior program level supported an enrollment of 60 infants and toddlers (and their families), and applicants are essentially competing to operate at a similar service scope while meeting all applicable Early Head Start performance and administrative requirements. The funding activity category is Income Security and Social Services, and the relevant CFDA program is 93.600 (Head Start). A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants should be prepared to document and meet the non-federal share expectations associated with Head Start and Early Head Start awards.
Eligible applicants include a broad mix of public and private entities. This includes nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (and nonprofits without higher education status), state and local governments (including county and city/township governments), independent school districts, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, federally recognized tribal governments, and for-profit organizations other than small businesses. Faith-based and community organizations are explicitly eligible as long as they meet standard eligibility requirements. Individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are not eligible to apply.
The application deadline listed for this opportunity was July 12, 2011, and submissions through Grants.gov were required no later than 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Applicants were directed to request pre-application materials and additional guidance by calling the Office of Head Start (OHS) Operations Center at (866) 796-1591, with additional materials also available via www.headstartgrants.org. For technical issues accessing the full announcement, ACF provided an application help desk contact at appsupport@acf.hhs.gov. The full funding opportunity was posted May 13, 2011 under Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2011-ACF-OHS-CH-R02-0243, later archived on December 23, 2011, reflecting that it was a time-limited competition to select a replacement provider for Early Head Start services in the specified Puerto Rico communities.
