Opportunity Summary:

This grant opportunity, titled "Head Start Grantee - Geary County, Kansas" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2014-ACF-OHS-CH-R07-0750), was issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), under the Office of Head Start. It is a discretionary grant intended to fund a single organization to deliver Head Start program services for eligible children and families living in Geary County, Kansas. The program area is classified under Income Security and Social Services, and the applicable CFDA listing is 93.600 (Head Start).

ACF anticipated making one award through this competition, with an annual funding amount of $1,311,764. The award ceiling and floor were both set at $1,311,764, indicating that the agency expected to fund one operator at a defined service and funding level rather than a range of potential budgets. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning the selected grantee would be expected to meet Head Start non-federal share requirements consistent with program rules.

Eligible applicants were broadly defined to include many types of local and regional entities that could operate a Head Start program, such as local public agencies and governments (including city/township and county governments), independent school districts, public housing authorities (including Indian housing authorities), federally recognized tribal governments, nonprofit organizations (both 501(c)(3) and certain non-501(c)(3) nonprofits), and institutions of higher education (public, state-controlled, and private). The announcement also allowed for-profit organizations, including small businesses and other for-profit entities, to apply. Faith-based and community organizations were explicitly eligible as long as they met the standard eligibility requirements, and ACF pointed applicants to its policy guidance on grants to faith-based organizations. At the same time, the announcement clearly excluded individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships from eligibility.

Key dates show the opportunity was posted and created on July 23, 2013, with an application deadline of October 21, 2013. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date.
