Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Head Start Grantee - City of Winchester, Frederick and Clarke Counties, Virginia" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2013-ACF-OHS-CH-R03-0460), is a discretionary grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), under the Office of Head Start. The purpose is to select 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 Winchester and in Frederick and Clarke Counties, Virginia. The funding falls under the Income Security and Social Services activity category and is tied to CFDA 93.600 (Head Start).
ACF is seeking applications from organizations within the community that are capable of operating a Head Start program. Eligible applicants include local public or private nonprofit organizations (including community-based and faith-based organizations) as well as for-profit agencies. The eligible applicant types listed for this announcement are broad and include federally recognized tribal governments, city or township governments, county governments, independent school districts, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, 501(c)(3) nonprofits (other than IHEs), small businesses, and other for-profit organizations that are not small businesses. While faith-based and community organizations are explicitly welcomed as eligible if they meet the requirements, certain entities are not allowed to apply: individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are ineligible to compete for or receive an award under this announcement.
The award is structured as an annual funding amount of $1,061,450 to support program operations and services. The estimated total funding amount is also listed as $1,061,450, and the opportunity anticipates making one award, meaning ACF expects to fund a single grantee to cover the defined service area. The award ceiling is $1,061,450, with an award floor of $0, indicating that the maximum expected award aligns with the total annual amount announced. Cost sharing or matching is required, so applicants should expect to meet the program's non-federal share requirements consistent with Head Start grant rules and should be prepared to document how they will satisfy that obligation.
