Opportunity Summary:
The Head Start Replacement Grantee opportunity for Catawba County, North Carolina is a discretionary grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), specifically to select a new organization to operate local Head Start services. The goal is continuity: ACF is looking for an eligible local provider to keep Head Start programming in place at roughly the same scope as the current grantee, Eastern Catawba Cooperative Christian Ministry, so that children and families in the county do not lose access to services.
Funding available under this announcement is $1,183,768 per year, and ACF expects to make one award. The award ceiling is the full annual amount listed, with no stated minimum (award floor of $0). The funded program is expected to serve a total funded enrollment of 166 children and families, matching the scale of the existing Head Start grant in the county. The funding activity area is categorized under Income Security and Social Services, and the program is associated with CFDA 93.600 (Head Start). A cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated, meaning applicants should be prepared to meet any non-federal share or match expectations described in the full announcement and Head Start program rules.
Eligibility is centered on organizations that are local to the community being served and capable of delivering Head Start services in Catawba County. ACF specifies that local public or private nonprofit organizations may apply, including faith-based and community organizations, and local for-profit organizations may also be eligible. The broader eligibility listing includes entities such as county, city, and state governments; independent school districts; public housing authorities; institutions of higher education; small businesses; tribal governments and tribal organizations; and various nonprofit categories. Even with that broad list, the key limitation is that the applicant must be a local organization in or serving the community that can actually operate Head Start for eligible children and families in Catawba County. Individuals and foreign entities are explicitly not eligible.
Key timing details reflect that this was a time-limited competition. The opportunity was posted June 11, 2010, with an original (and current) closing date of August 10, 2010. For applications submitted electronically through Grants.gov, the deadline is no later than 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The opportunity later moved to archive status, with an archive date of September 9, 2010, which typically indicates the competition is no longer accepting applications and is retained for recordkeeping and reference.
Applicants seeking to compete were directed to contact the Office of Head Start (OHS) Operations Center at (866) 796-1591 to obtain pre-application materials and additional guidance.
