Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Head Start Grantee - Upshur County, West Virginia" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2014-ACF-OHS-CH-R03-0673), was issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), under the Office of Head Start. It is a discretionary grant intended to fund one organization to operate Head Start program services for eligible children and families living in Upshur County, West Virginia. The funding falls under the Income Security and Social Services activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.600 (Head Start).
ACF anticipated making a single award, with total estimated annual funding of $1,336,981. The award floor and ceiling were both listed as $1,336,981, which signals the agency expected one grantee to receive the full amount to deliver the required services for the county. A cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning the selected grantee would need to meet Head Start non-federal share rules as part of operating the program.
Eligible applicants were broadly defined to encourage competition among capable local providers. Public and private nonprofit organizations could apply, including community-based and faith-based organizations, as well as for-profit agencies operating within the community. Government entities such as city or township governments, county governments, independent school districts, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, and Native American tribal governments (federally recognized) were also eligible. Institutions of higher education, both public and private, were listed as eligible, along with small businesses and nonprofits that may not have 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). At the same time, the announcement clearly stated that individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships were not eligible to apply or receive an award under this notice. Faith-based organizations were explicitly welcomed, with a reference to ACF policy guidance for faith-based grantees.
