Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Head Start Grantee - Allegheny County, Pennsylvania" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2013-ACF-OHS-CH-R03-0336), was issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), under the Office of Head Start. It is a discretionary grant in the Income Security and Social Services category (CFDA 93.600, Head Start). The purpose of the funding is to select organizations to operate Head Start program services for eligible children and their families living in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, using the federal Head Start model and requirements.
ACF indicated that approximately $10,390,449 in annual funding would be available to support services in the county, with an award ceiling listed at $10,390,449 and an award floor of $0. The announcement anticipated making up to three awards, meaning the total service area could potentially be split among multiple grantees depending on how ACF structured the competition and made final selections. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants would need to plan for the required non-federal share consistent with Head Start rules and show how they will meet that obligation.
Eligibility was broad and included local public or private nonprofit organizations (including 501(c)(3) entities), community-based and faith-based organizations that meet program requirements, and for-profit organizations (other than small businesses). Other eligible applicant types listed include county governments, city or township governments, independent school districts, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, small businesses, and federally recognized tribal governments. The notice explicitly states that individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are not eligible to apply or receive awards under this announcement.
The opportunity was posted and created on May 16, 2012, with an application closing date of August 14, 2012.
