Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Early Head Start Replacement Grantee - Sumter County, South Carolina" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2012-ACF-OHS-CH-R04-0265), is a discretionary federal grant offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), through the Office of Head Start. It is designed to fund one organization to operate Early Head Start services for infants, toddlers, and their families living in Sumter County, South Carolina. The main purpose is continuity: ACF is seeking a replacement grantee to continue the same type of Early Head Start program services that were previously delivered in this service area by the current grantee, Sumter County School District 17, rather than launching an entirely new or different initiative.
The award is expected to support an annual program budget of $1,185,369, which is also listed as the award ceiling, with one award anticipated. The funded program is expected to maintain a funded enrollment level of 99 infants and toddlers and their families, matching the existing scope of services. The funding falls under CFDA 93.600 (Head Start) and is categorized under Income Security and Social Services. A cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning the selected grantee must meet applicable non-federal share requirements consistent with Head Start/Early Head Start grant rules.
Eligibility is broad and includes public and private entities that can run Early Head Start programming, such as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in that specific nonprofit category listing), county and city/township governments, state 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 included as eligible so long as they meet the standard eligibility requirements. Individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are not eligible to apply or receive an award under this announcement.
