Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Head Start Grantee - City of New Haven in New Haven County, Connecticut" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2013 ACF OHS CH R01 0324), is a discretionary 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 purpose of the competition is to select one or more organizations to operate Head Start services for eligible children and families living in the City of New Haven in New Haven County, Connecticut. The program focus falls under Income Security and Social Services, and the relevant CFDA number is 93.600 (Head Start).
ACF is seeking applications from organizations that can deliver comprehensive Head Start program services within the community. The announcement specifically invites local public or private nonprofit organizations, including community-based and faith-based organizations, as well as for-profit agencies, to apply. The intent is to ensure that children and families in the defined service area have access to Head Start, which typically includes early childhood education, health and developmental screening and referrals, family engagement, and other wraparound supports designed to promote school readiness and strengthen family well-being.
The total estimated funding available is listed as $6,284,028 annually, with an award ceiling of $6,284,028 and an award floor of $0. The opportunity anticipates making up to two awards, which suggests ACF may fund more than one provider or structure services across multiple operators depending on local needs and the applications received. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning the selected grantee(s) must meet Head Start non-federal share requirements consistent with program rules (the announcement flags this requirement even though it does not detail the percentage in the provided text).
Eligible applicant types include a wide range of public and private entities: nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education), public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, independent school districts, city or township governments, county governments, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, federally recognized tribal governments, small businesses, and for-profit organizations other than small businesses. The eligibility notes emphasize that faith-based and community organizations that meet all requirements are eligible. At the same time, individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are explicitly not eligible to apply for or receive awards under this announcement.
Key dates show the announcement was posted May 16, 2012, with an application deadline of August 14, 2012. Applications had to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date.
