Opportunity Summary:

The Early Head Start Replacement Grantee St. Louis City, Missouri funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2010-ACF-OHS-CH-R07-0098) is a discretionary grant competition issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF). Its core purpose is to select one new organization to take over and continue Early Head Start services in St. Louis City, Missouri, replacing the former grantee, South Side Day Nursery. The grant is designed to ensure continuity of services for infants, toddlers, and their families in the community, rather than to start an entirely new initiative from scratch.

ACF anticipates making a single award, with approximately $778,072 available each year to operate the program. The prior program level supported an enrollment of 64 children and families, and applicants are expected to propose services that meet Early Head Start requirements for eligible infants and toddlers and incorporate family-focused supports. The funding instrument is a grant, the activity category is Income Security and Social Services, and the opportunity is listed under CFDA 93.600 (Head Start). A cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning the selected grantee must contribute non-federal resources in accordance with Head Start/Early Head Start rules and the full announcement instructions.

Eligibility is focused on local capacity within St. Louis City. ACF is seeking applications from local public or private nonprofit organizations, including faith-based and community organizations, as well as local for-profit organizations that can deliver Early Head Start services to the target population in St. Louis City, Missouri. While the notice includes a broad list of applicant types that can generally appear in federal eligibility categories (such as certain government entities and educational institutions), the controlling eligibility language emphasizes local organizations able to provide Early Head Start in the specified service area. Individuals and foreign entities are explicitly not eligible to apply under this announcement.

Key dates for the competition include a posted date of March 24, 2010, and an application deadline (original and current closing date) of May 24, 2010. Applications submitted through Grants.gov had to be submitted by 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The opportunity was archived on June 23, 2010, and the award ceiling is listed as $778,072 (with an award floor of $0).

Applicants needing pre-application materials or more guidance were directed to contact the Office of Head Start (OHS) Operations Center at (866) 796-1591.
