Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity is a discretionary grant announcement from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), seeking organizations to serve as the Head Start grantee for a defined service area in northeast Oklahoma. The announcement was modified from its original version in two key ways: the application deadline was extended by one day to Monday, August 19, 2013, and the service area was specified as Craig, Delaware, and Ottawa Counties, Oklahoma. The purpose of the competition is to award federal funds to an organization (or organizations) that will operate Head Start program services for eligible children and their families living in those counties.
ACF is making available an estimated total of $2,697,851 per year to support Head Start services in the three-county area, with an award ceiling listed at the same amount. The award floor is shown as $0, which typically signals that award amounts can vary depending on the structure of the selected applications, though the total annual amount available for the service area is clearly identified. ACF expects to make two awards under this opportunity. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is listed as Income Security and Social Services. The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 93.600 (Head Start). A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning applicants should be prepared to meet whatever non-federal share requirements are included in the full Head Start funding rules and this specific announcement.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of entities that are capable of operating a Head Start program. Eligible applicants include local public or private nonprofit organizations (including 501(c)(3) nonprofits), community-based organizations, and faith-based organizations, as well as for-profit organizations operating within a community. In addition, the listing includes federally recognized Native American tribal governments, county governments, city or township governments, independent school districts, public housing authorities (including Indian housing authorities), small businesses, and public or state-controlled institutions of higher education, along with private institutions of higher education. While faith-based organizations are explicitly eligible and encouraged to review ACF policy on grants to faith-based organizations, certain applicants are specifically excluded: individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are not eligible to apply for or receive awards under this announcement.
The deadline for electronic submission is firm: applications must be submitted no later than 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on August 19, 2013. The opportunity was posted on June 4, 2013, with a creation date of June 26, 2013, and it was archived on September 18, 2013. Applicants needing help accessing or working with the electronic announcement materials are directed to the ACF Applications Help Desk at appsupport@acf.hhs.gov.
