Opportunity Summary:
The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) announced a competitive discretionary grant opportunity to select a single organization to serve as the Head Start grantee for Lewis County, Washington. The purpose of the award is to fund the delivery of Head Start program services for eligible children and their families living in Lewis County. The opportunity is tied to the Head Start program (CFDA 93.600) and falls under the federal funding activity area of income security and social services.
The funding level for this competition is set at $1,496,869 per year, and the announcement indicates an expectation of one award.

Eligible applicant types 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, nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (with the noted limitation that the nonprofit category excludes institutions of higher education), for-profit organizations other than small businesses, and small businesses.
