Opportunity Summary:
The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) announced a competitive discretionary grant opportunity to select one organization to serve as the Head Start grantee for the communities of Encinitas and Solana Beach, California. The purpose of the funding is to deliver Head Start program services to eligible children and their families in that service area, supporting early childhood development and related family services under the federal Head Start program (CFDA 93.600). This notice reflects a modification to the original announcement: the application due date was changed to Monday, August 19, 2013, with electronic applications required to be submitted by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on that date.
The funding opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2014-ACF-OHS-CH-R09-0629, categorized as a grant (Funding Instrument Type: Grant) and aligned with the broader activity area of Income Security and Social Services. ACF anticipated making one award, with estimated total annual funding of $2,338,614. The award ceiling is also $2,338,614, meaning the maximum expected annual award amount matches the estimated total. The award floor is listed as $0, indicating no stated minimum award amount in the listing. Applicants should also note that a cost sharing or matching requirement applies, so the selected grantee would need to meet applicable non-federal share requirements consistent with Head Start grant rules.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of local entities that can operate Head Start services. Eligible applicants include county governments; city or township governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education); small businesses; and for-profit organizations other than small businesses. The announcement explicitly states that faith-based and community-based organizations that meet the eligibility requirements are welcome to apply. At the same time, certain applicants are not eligible: individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorship organizations cannot compete for or receive awards under this opportunity.
