Opportunity Summary:
The Head Start Replacement Grant for Sampson County, North Carolina is a discretionary federal grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), through the Office of Head Start (OHS). The purpose of the competition is to select an organization to continue delivering Head Start services in Sampson County, effectively replacing the current grantee, the Sampson County Department of Human Resources, and ensuring that services for eligible children and families remain uninterrupted.
This funding supports the Head Start program, which falls under the broader category of income security and social services (CFDA 93.600). The award is intended to maintain the existing level of service, including the currently funded enrollment of 345 children and families in the service area. The annual funding amount available is $2,162,247, and the opportunity anticipates making one award. The maximum award amount (ceiling) is also listed as $2,162,247, with no stated minimum (floor of $0), which typically means the final award amount may depend on an approved application budget and program design consistent with Head Start requirements.
Eligible applicants are fairly broad and include local public and private entities such as county governments, city or township governments, independent school districts, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding higher education institutions), and certain Native American tribal governments and tribal organizations. The announcement explicitly notes that faith-based and community organizations may apply as long as they meet eligibility requirements. At the same time, individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are not allowed to apply or receive an award under this notice. The funding opportunity also indicates a cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the selected grantee may need to contribute non-federal resources in accordance with Head Start and grant policy rules described in the full announcement.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number HHS-2012-ACF-OHS-CH-R04-0266, with the opportunity posted on Aug 3, 2011 and an application closing date of Oct 3, 2011.
