Opportunity Summary:
The Head Start Grantee opportunity for Pawnee, Rice, and Barton Counties, Kansas is a discretionary federal grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), under the Head Start program (CFDA 93.600). The purpose of the funding is to select one organization to operate Head Start services for eligible children and their families living in these three Kansas counties. The announcement notes a modification to the original notice: the application due date was changed to Monday, August 19, 2013, and electronically submitted applications had to be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on that date.
The grant makes an estimated $455,521 available each year to support program operations, with an award ceiling of $455,521 and no stated minimum (award floor of $0). ACF anticipated making one award, meaning applicants were competing to become the single Head Start grantee serving the designated service area. The funding activity category is listed as Income Security and Social Services, reflecting Head Start's broader role in supporting early childhood development, family well-being, and access to comprehensive services.
Eligibility is fairly broad and is intended to capture the kinds of entities that typically have the capacity to run community-based early childhood programs. Eligible applicants include local public or private nonprofit organizations (including 501(c)(3) nonprofits), community-based and faith-based organizations that meet program eligibility requirements, certain governmental entities (such as city/township and county 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 tribal governments, and for-profit organizations (including small businesses and other for-profit entities, as specified). At the same time, the announcement makes clear that individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are not eligible to apply or receive an award under this competition. The listing also indicates that cost sharing or matching is required, meaning the selected grantee would need to meet Head Start non-federal share requirements consistent with program rules.
For applicants seeking details beyond the summarized notice, the announcement points to an official posting link on the ACF grants site (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2014-ACF-OHS-CH-R07-0625). It also provides two support contacts: program-related questions and additional information could be directed to the Office of Head Start Operations Center by email at DRS@headstartinfo.org, while technical issues accessing the announcement or submitting an application could be directed to the ACF Applications Help Desk at appsupport@acf.hhs.gov. The opportunity was posted in early June 2013 and later archived on September 18, 2013.
