Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity is a competitive Head Start funding announcement from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF). It seeks one organization to serve as the Head Start grantee responsible for delivering comprehensive Head Start services to eligible children and families living in the City of Kaufman and in portions of Kaufman County, Texas. The award supports the standard Head Start model, which typically includes early childhood education, health and developmental screenings and referrals, family support services, and strong parent and community engagement components aimed at improving school readiness and overall family well-being.
Funding is offered as a discretionary grant under CFDA 93.600 (Head Start). The opportunity anticipates a single award, with estimated total funding of $562,363 per year. The published award floor and ceiling are both $562,363, which signals that ACF is setting a fixed annual funding level for the service area rather than a range. A cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning the selected grantee will be expected to meet Head Start non-federal share rules as part of operating the program.
A wide range of applicant types may compete, as long as they are based in the community and otherwise eligible under the announcement. Eligible applicants include local public or private nonprofit organizations (including community-based and faith-based organizations), for-profit agencies, small businesses, city or township governments, county governments, independent school districts, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, institutions of higher education (public, state-controlled, and private), and federally recognized Native American tribal governments. The key eligibility limitation stated is that applications from individuals (including sole proprietorships) and foreign entities are not allowed; those submissions are disqualified from review and cannot be funded under this announcement.
