Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Head Start Grantee - Laramie County, Wyoming," is a discretionary federal funding announcement released by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), through the Office of Head Start. The purpose of the award is to select one organization to operate Head Start services for eligible children and families living in Laramie County, Wyoming. The funding is intended to support comprehensive Head Start programming, which typically includes early childhood education, health and developmental screenings, family support services, and activities designed to strengthen school readiness for young children while engaging parents as partners.
ACF expects to make a single award under this announcement, with an estimated annual funding amount of $1,606,581. The award ceiling matches that amount, and the award floor is listed as $0, meaning the final award level depends on the approved application and program design, up to the stated maximum. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is listed as "Income Security and Social Services," reflecting Head Start's role as both an early learning program and a family-support initiative. The funding is associated with CFDA number 93.600 (Head Start). A cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants should be prepared to meet non-federal share expectations consistent with Head Start grant rules.
Eligibility is broad, allowing a range of local entities to apply, including public or private nonprofit organizations (including 501(c)(3) nonprofits), faith-based and community-based organizations that meet program requirements, and for-profit agencies located within the community. Eligible applicant types also include county, city/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, small businesses, and other for-profit organizations (including those other than small businesses). However, individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are explicitly not eligible to compete for or receive awards under this announcement.
The opportunity was posted and created on April 19, 2012, with an original and current closing date of July 18, 2012. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date.
