Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Head Start Grantee - Autauga, Chilton, Elmore and Shelby Counties, Alabama" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2013-ACF-OHS-CH-R04-0364), 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 designed to fund a single organization to deliver Head Start program services to eligible children and families living in four Alabama counties: Autauga, Chilton, Elmore, and Shelby. The funding is intended to support comprehensive early childhood services, which typically include early learning, health and developmental screenings, family engagement, and related supports that Head Start programs are required to provide under federal performance standards.
The opportunity anticipated one award, with an estimated total annual funding amount of $4,042,738. The award ceiling is also listed as $4,042,738, meaning the full annual amount was expected to go to the successful applicant, while the award floor is $0. The program is associated with CFDA number 93.600 (Head Start). A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants needed to be prepared to meet Head Start non-federal share rules, which commonly involve a combination of cash and in-kind contributions consistent with federal requirements.
ACF invited applications from a broad range of eligible entities, as long as they were able to operate within the local community to provide Head Start services. Eligible applicants included local and county governments, city or township governments, independent school districts, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, federally recognized Native American tribal governments, nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (including community-based and faith-based organizations), public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, for-profit organizations (other than small businesses), and small businesses. The announcement specifically noted that faith-based and community organizations meeting eligibility requirements were welcome to apply. At the same time, it explicitly excluded individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships from competing for or receiving an award under this announcement.
