Opportunity Summary:

The Early Head Start Replacement Grantee opportunity for Northeast Philadelphia, Pennsylvania is a discretionary federal grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), through the Office of Head Start. Its purpose is to select a new organization to continue delivering Early Head Start services in the Northeast Philadelphia area that had been served by the prior provider, Special People in the Northeast (SPIN). In practical terms, this is a replacement-grantee funding opportunity designed to prevent a lapse in services for eligible infants, toddlers, and their families in that community.

Funding under this announcement is intended to support the ongoing operation of an Early Head Start program with an enrollment level of 48 children (infants and toddlers) and their families. The estimated annual funding available is $526,053, which is also listed as the award ceiling for the single expected award. The funding activity category is Income Security and Social Services, and the assistance is tied to CFDA 93.600 (Head Start). Cost sharing or matching is required, meaning the selected grantee must meet applicable non-federal share requirements consistent with Head Start rules and the specific instructions in the full announcement.

Eligibility is focused on organizations capable of operating Early Head Start services locally in Northeast Philadelphia. The solicitation is open to local public or private non-profit organizations (including faith-based organizations) as well as local for-profit organizations. The broader eligibility list also references multiple government entities and other organization types, but the key limitation described in the eligibility narrative is that applicants must be community-based and able to provide Early Head Start services to the target population in Northeast Philadelphia. Individuals and foreign entities are explicitly not eligible to apply.

The opportunity was posted on March 24, 2010, with an original and current closing date of May 24, 2010. Applications submitted through Grants.gov had to be received no later than 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The announcement later moved into archived status on June 23, 2010. Applicants seeking guidance or materials were directed to call the Office of Head Start (OHS) Operations Center at (866) 796-1591 for pre-application materials and additional information.
