Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Head Start Grantee - Nicholas County, West Virginia" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2013-ACF-OHS-CH-R03-0471), is a discretionary federal grant offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), through the Office of Head Start. The purpose is to select a single organization to operate Head Start program services for eligible children and their families living in Nicholas County, West Virginia. In practical terms, ACF is seeking a local provider that can deliver comprehensive early childhood services consistent with Head Start requirements, serving children and supporting families in the county.
ACF anticipates making one award under this announcement, with an estimated total annual funding amount of $865,364. The award ceiling is also listed as $865,364, and the award floor is $0, meaning the expected award amount is essentially the full annual allocation if an applicant is selected. The assistance is provided as a grant, and the funding activity category is classified under Income Security and Social Services. The applicable CFDA program number is 93.600 (Head Start). A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants should plan for the non-federal share requirements typically associated with Head Start grants, rather than assuming the federal funding covers 100% of operating costs.
Eligibility is broad across a range of entity types, as long as the organization can meet Head Start and federal grant requirements. Eligible applicants include local public or private nonprofit organizations (including 501(c)(3) organizations), community-based and faith-based organizations, and for-profit agencies operating within the community. The eligibility list also includes governmental entities such as county governments, city or township governments, and independent school districts, as well as public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, federally recognized tribal governments, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and small businesses (as well as for-profit organizations other than small businesses). The announcement explicitly states that faith-based and community organizations that meet the eligibility requirements are eligible. At the same time, it clarifies that individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorship organizations are not eligible to apply for or receive awards under this funding opportunity.
