Opportunity Summary:

The Head Start Grantee opportunity for Ashtabula County, Ohio is a discretionary federal grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), through the Office of Head Start. The funding is intended to support organizations that will operate Head Start program services for eligible children and their families living in Ashtabula County. The announcement specifically notes a modification: the application due date was changed to Monday, August 19, 2013, with electronic submissions due no later than 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on that date. The funding opportunity number is HHS-2014-ACF-OHS-CH-R05-0614, and it falls under the Income Security and Social Services activity category (CFDA 93.600, Head Start).

The award amount available for the project is listed as $2,371,047 annually, and the same figure is shown as both the estimated total funding and the award ceiling, meaning a single award could be up to that amount. The award floor is listed as $0, and ACF anticipated making up to two awards under this announcement. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants should plan for the non-federal share obligations that commonly accompany Head Start grants. The opportunity was posted on June 4, 2013, created on June 5, 2013, originally scheduled to close on August 18, 2013, and then extended by one day to August 19, 2013. The archive date is September 18, 2013, which indicates when the listing was set to be removed from active posting.

Eligibility is broad and includes both public and private entities that can operate a Head Start program, including nonprofit organizations (including those with 501(c)(3) status), community-based and faith-based organizations that meet the requirements, for-profit organizations (including small businesses and other for-profits), county and city or township governments, independent school districts, public and state-controlled and private institutions of higher education, federally recognized Native American tribal governments, and public housing authorities or Indian housing authorities. At the same time, the notice clearly excludes individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships from competing for or receiving awards under this announcement.
