Opportunity Summary:
The Head Start Grantee opportunity for Waukesha County, Wisconsin 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 Office of Head Start. Through this funding announcement (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2014-ACF-OHS-CH-R05-0715; CFDA 93.600), ACF is seeking an organization to operate Head Start services for eligible children and their families who live in Waukesha County. The purpose is to fund comprehensive early childhood services consistent with Head Start requirements, serving income-eligible children and supporting families through related program components.
ACF expects to make one award under this announcement. The total annual funding available is $1,918,985, and the award floor and ceiling are both listed as $1,918,985, meaning the grant is structured as a single, fixed annual amount for the successful applicant to deliver the full scope of services described in the Head Start program framework. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity area is categorized under Income Security and Social Services. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants should be prepared to document and meet the required non-federal share consistent with Head Start grant rules.
Eligibility is broad within the local community context and includes a range of public and private entities. Eligible applicants include local public or private nonprofit organizations (including both 501(c)(3) nonprofits and certain nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status), community-based and faith-based organizations that meet applicable requirements, as well as some for-profit entities. Governmental and education-related entities may also apply, including county governments, city or township governments, independent school districts, public and state controlled institutions of higher education, and private institutions of higher education. The announcement explicitly notes that faith-based organizations are eligible and are encouraged to review ACF policy regarding grants to faith-based organizations. At the same time, some applicants are clearly excluded: individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are not eligible to compete for or receive awards under this opportunity.
Key dates show this was a time-limited competition: the opportunity was posted and created on July 23, 2013, with an original and current closing date of October 21, 2013. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date, and the opportunity was archived on November 20, 2013.
