Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity is a competitive federal grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), to select a Head Start grantee to serve children and families living in New Hanover County, North Carolina. The grant is intended to support the delivery of Head Start program services, which generally include comprehensive early childhood education along with related family support, health, and social services for eligible children and their families.

The annual funding amount available is $1,899,877, which is also listed as the award ceiling (with an award floor of $0). The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and uses a grant as the funding instrument. The funding activity category is listed as Income Security and Social Services, and the relevant CFDA number is 93.600 (Head Start). The announcement notes a cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants should expect that some level of non-federal share will be required as part of the award conditions.
Eligibility is broad and includes many organization types that could reasonably run a Head Start program in the county. Eligible applicants include local public or private nonprofit organizations (including 501(c)(3) nonprofits), community-based organizations, and faith-based organizations that meet the program requirements. For-profit organizations may also apply, and the eligibility list also includes county governments, city or township governments, independent school districts, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, federally recognized Native American tribal governments, small businesses, and both public/state-controlled and private institutions of higher education. At the same time, the announcement explicitly excludes individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships from competing for or receiving an award under this funding opportunity.
