Opportunity Summary:
The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) announced a discretionary grant competition to select a Head Start grantee to deliver Head Start program services for eligible children and families living in Cleveland, Comanche, and Pottawatomie Counties in Oklahoma. This opportunity is intended to fund a single awardee to operate comprehensive Head Start services in those counties, covering the full range of program expectations typically associated with Head Start, such as early childhood education, health and developmental supports, family engagement, and related social services that help promote school readiness and family well-being.
The funding opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2013-ACF-OHS-CH-R06-0411, with the title "Head Start Grantee - Cleveland, Commanche, and Pottawatomie Counties, Oklahoma." The program falls under the Funding Activity Category of Income Security and Social Services and uses the grant funding instrument type. The applicable CFDA number is 93.600 (Head Start). ACF anticipated making one award under this announcement, meaning applicants were competing for a single grantee position to serve the identified service area.
Financially, the announcement made available an estimated total of $5,308,022 per year to operate the Head Start program in the designated counties. The award ceiling is also listed as $5,308,022, indicating that the maximum annual amount for the award aligns with the total funds expected to be available. The award floor is listed as $0, which generally reflects that there is not a guaranteed minimum amount for any applicant and that funding depends on a successful application and award decision. The opportunity also includes a cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants would need to be prepared to meet Head Start non-federal share expectations as part of program operations.
Eligibility for this competition is broad within the community and includes local public or private nonprofit organizations as well as for-profit agencies capable of delivering Head Start services. Eligible applicant types explicitly include independent school districts; small businesses; private and public/state-controlled institutions of higher education; county, city, or township governments; nonprofits with 501(c)(3) IRS status (excluding higher education institutions as a category); public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; for-profit organizations other than small businesses; and federally recognized Native American tribal governments. The announcement specifically notes that faith-based and community organizations are eligible so long as they meet the standard eligibility requirements. At the same time, individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are not eligible to apply for or receive awards under this funding opportunity.
Key dates in the public notice show the opportunity was posted on April 19, 2012, and applications were due by July 18, 2012. For electronic submissions, the deadline was 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The archive date is July 19, 2012, indicating the opportunity was then closed and archived after the submission window ended.
