Opportunity Summary:
The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) announced a competitive Head Start grant opportunity to fund a single organization to operate Head Start services for eligible children and families living in Virginia Beach, Virginia. The notice reflects a modification to the original posting: the application deadline was moved from August 18, 2013 to Monday, August 19, 2013, with electronically submitted applications due no later than 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. This is a discretionary grant program under CFDA 93.600 (Head Start) and falls within the broader federal activity area of income security and social services.
The funding available is estimated at $2,282,445 per year, which is also listed as the award ceiling, indicating the maximum annual amount expected for the selected grantee. The award floor is $0, meaning proposals could theoretically request less, but the intent is to support a full Head Start program for the service area. ACF anticipates making one award, so applicants are competing for a single grantee slot to deliver comprehensive Head Start program services in Virginia Beach. The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2014-ACF-OHS-CH-R03-0619 and was posted June 4, 2013 (created June 5, 2013). The opportunity was scheduled to be archived September 18, 2013.
Eligibility is broad and designed to allow a range of community providers to compete, as long as they meet Head Start requirements. Eligible applicants include local public or private nonprofit organizations (including community-based and faith-based organizations), and for-profit agencies operating within the community. The eligible applicant types listed include nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education), small businesses, other for-profit organizations (other than small businesses), independent school districts, city or township governments, county governments, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, and federally recognized Native American tribal governments. The announcement specifically notes that faith-based and community organizations that meet the requirements are eligible. Individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are explicitly not eligible to apply or receive an award under this announcement.
A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning the successful applicant would be expected to contribute non-federal resources consistent with Head Start grant rules. For organizations seeking more details about program expectations or the competition process, the notice directs interested applicants to contact the OHS Operations Center by email at DRS@headstartinfo.org. For technical issues accessing the full announcement or electronic materials, applicants are instructed to contact the ACF Applications Help Desk at appsupport@acf.hhs.gov.
