Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Head Start Grantee - Fauquier County, Virginia" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2013 ACF OHS CH R03 0464), was issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), under the Head Start program (CFDA 93.600). It is a discretionary grant competition intended to select a single grantee to operate Head Start services for eligible children and families living in Fauquier County, Virginia.

Funding is expected to support one award, with an estimated total annual funding amount of $1,025,876. The listed award ceiling is the same amount ($1,025,876), with an award floor of $0, meaning awards could technically vary but are capped at the stated annual amount.
