Opportunity Summary:
The Administration for Children and Families (ACF), through the Office of Head Start (OHS) within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), is offering a discretionary grant opportunity to select a single grantee to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start services in Taylor County, Florida. The goal is to ensure local children and families have access to a high-quality, comprehensive early childhood program serving the full birth-to-five continuum. Applicants may propose to run a combined birth-to-five model using both Head Start and Early Head Start funding, or they may apply to operate only Head Start or only Early Head Start, as long as they are prepared to deliver the required program services to eligible participants in the county.
The available funding is up to $1,199,592 per year, with an anticipated single award (Expected Awards: 1) and an award ceiling matching the annual amount listed. Funding is intended to support program operations and comprehensive services typical of Head Start and Early Head Start, which generally include early learning and school readiness supports, health and developmental screenings, family engagement services, and other wraparound supports designed to meet the needs of low-income children and families. The service area is specifically limited to Taylor County, Florida, and the funded organization would be responsible for delivering program services that meet Head Start Program Performance Standards and other applicable federal requirements.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of organizations capable of administering early childhood and family support programs. Eligible applicants include state, county, and local governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; public housing authorities (including Indian housing authorities); nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education); for-profit organizations (including those other than small businesses); and small businesses. This wide eligibility reflects an emphasis on selecting an operator with the capacity, experience, infrastructure, and community presence to deliver a strong Head Start and/or Early Head Start program in the county.
