Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Early Head Start Replacement Grantee - Southeast Bronx, New York," is a discretionary grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), under the Office of Head Start. The purpose is to select a replacement grantee to continue delivering Early Head Start services for infants and toddlers and to support their families in the Southeast Bronx. The announcement makes clear that the goal is continuity of services in the same community and at roughly the same scale as previously provided by the incumbent provider, IncludEd Educational Services.
ACF is making approximately $883,165 available each year for this single award, with an expected number of awards of one. The award ceiling is also listed as $883,165, which signals that the full annual amount is intended for the selected grantee to operate the local Early Head Start program. The current funded enrollment level is 72 infants, toddlers, and their families, and applicants are expected to propose an approach that can maintain that enrollment while meeting all applicable Early Head Start performance standards and program requirements associated with CFDA 93.600 (Head Start). As with many Head Start-related opportunities, a cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated, meaning applicants should be prepared to document and meet any non-federal share expectations described in the full announcement.
Eligibility is broad across government and organizational types, as long as the applicant fits within the allowed categories. Eligible applicants include public and private nonprofit organizations (including those with IRS 501(c)(3) status), faith-based and community organizations that meet program requirements, certain government entities (state, county, city or township governments), tribal governments that are federally recognized, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, independent school districts, and higher education institutions (both public and private). For-profit organizations (other than small businesses) are also listed as eligible. The announcement specifically excludes individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships from competing or receiving an award.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number (HHS-2011-ACF-OHS-CH-R02-0257), the posting date (June 6, 2011), and the original and current closing date (August 5, 2011). For applications submitted through Grants.gov, the deadline is tied to a specific cutoff time: submissions must be completed no later than 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The notice also indicates it was later archived on December 23, 2011, which is useful context for recordkeeping and for anyone reviewing historical funding rounds.
