Opportunity Summary:
This discretionary grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2014-ACF-OHS-CH-R10-0760) was issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), to select a single grantee to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start services for families living in Jefferson and Clallam Counties, Washington. The purpose is to fund a high-quality, comprehensive birth-to-five early childhood program. Applicants may propose to run a program that blends Head Start and Early Head Start funding into a coordinated continuum of services, or they may apply to operate Head Start only or Early Head Start only, as long as the proposal meets the applicable statutory and program requirements.
ACF made $1,923,490 available annually for this service area, with an award floor and ceiling both set at $1,923,490, meaning the expectation was a single award at that amount. The funding activity category is Income Security and Social Services, and the relevant CFDA program number is 93.600 (Head Start). The announcement indicates a cost sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants were expected to plan for and document the required non-federal share consistent with Head Start/Early Head Start rules.
Eligibility depends on what an organization is applying to operate. For proposals that include Head Start (Head Start only, or both Head Start and Early Head Start), eligible applicants are limited to local public or private nonprofit agencies (including community-based and faith-based organizations) or local for-profit agencies located in the service area, as authorized under Section 641(a)(1) of the Head Start Act. These applicants must be able to deliver Head Start services to children and families in Jefferson and Clallam Counties and must demonstrate that they meet the statutory requirements for designation as a Head Start and/or Early Head Start agency under the Head Start Act. For proposals that are Early Head Start only, eligibility is broader: any public or private nonprofit agency (including community-based and faith-based organizations) or for-profit agency may apply under Section 645A(d) of the Head Start Act, provided they can deliver Early Head Start services in the service area. Organizations already operating Head Start programs are also eligible to operate Early Head Start programs. The notice also makes clear that individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are not eligible.
The opportunity was posted July 24, 2013, with an application deadline of October 22, 2013. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The opportunity was later archived on November 21, 2013. The notice lists a single expected award, reinforcing that ACF intended to fund one grantee to cover the Jefferson and Clallam Counties service area.
