Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity is a discretionary Head Start funding competition offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), under CFDA 93.600 (Head Start). It seeks applicants to operate Head Start program services for eligible children and families living in specific areas of Oklahoma: Mayes, Rogers, Nowata, Washington, and Wagoner Counties, along with the City of Broken Arrow in Tulsa County. The overall purpose is to fund an organization (or organizations) that can deliver comprehensive Head Start services in these communities, consistent with federal Head Start requirements for early childhood education, health, family well-being, and related supports.
The announcement makes available an estimated total of $4,373,931 per year to run the program, with an award ceiling listed at the same amount and no stated award floor. ACF anticipates making two awards, which suggests the service area and funding may be divided between more than one grantee depending on how ACF structures the final awards. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is listed as Income Security and Social Services, reflecting Head Start's role as a federally funded safety-net and school readiness program for low-income families.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of local entities that can demonstrate the ability to meet Head Start program expectations. Eligible applicants include local and tribal governments (including federally recognized tribal governments), 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, 501(c)(3) nonprofits (other than institutions of higher education), small businesses, and for-profit organizations other than small businesses. The notice explicitly states that faith-based and community organizations are eligible as long as they meet the standard eligibility requirements. At the same time, individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are not eligible to apply or receive an award under this particular opportunity.
A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning the selected grantee(s) should expect to provide a non-federal share consistent with Head Start rules and the terms laid out in the full funding opportunity announcement. While the summary text does not specify the percentage or how it must be documented, applicants typically need to show credible plans for meeting this requirement through allowable sources and properly valued contributions, following federal guidance.
