Opportunity Summary:
The Head Start Replacement Grantee opportunity for the City and County of Camden, New Jersey is a discretionary federal grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), through the Office of Head Start. Its purpose is to select one or more new organizations to take over and continue Head Start services that had previously been provided by the former grantee, Camden County Council on Economic Opportunity Head Start of Camden, New Jersey Inc. The program focus is straightforward: maintain uninterrupted, high-quality Head Start programming for eligible young children and their families living in Camden City and Camden County.
Funding is substantial. ACF indicates that about $10,341,955 per year is available to support Head Start program services in this community, with an award ceiling equal to that amount and no stated award floor. The announcement anticipates up to three awards, meaning ACF may fund multiple providers or structures to cover the service area, depending on application quality and program design. The prior grantee’s funded enrollment was 1,183 children and families, which gives applicants a clear benchmark for the scale of services expected. As with Head Start generally, the work supported by these funds centers on comprehensive early childhood services that typically include education, health, mental health, nutrition, family engagement, and related support designed to promote school readiness and family well-being.
Eligibility is limited to organizations rooted in, and capable of serving, the Camden community. ACF specifies that local public or private nonprofit organizations, including faith-based organizations, and local for-profit organizations may apply as long as they can deliver Head Start services to children and families residing in the City and County of Camden, New Jersey. Faith-based and community organizations are explicitly affirmed as eligible if they meet the requirements. Individuals and foreign entities are not eligible under this announcement. While the general grants.gov eligibility list includes many entity types, the controlling restriction for this specific competition is that the applicant must be a local organization able to operate Head Start in the targeted service area.
The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2010-ACF-OHS-CH-R02-0127 under CFDA 93.600 (Head Start), and it is categorized under Income Security and Social Services. The posting date and creation date are June 11, 2010. The original and current closing date is August 10, 2010, and applications submitted electronically through Grants.gov were required to be submitted no later than 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The archive date is September 9, 2010. The listing also indicates a cost sharing or matching requirement, which is consistent with Head Start’s typical non-federal share expectations, although applicants would need to consult the full announcement for the exact terms and how the requirement can be met.
ACF points applicants to support resources and next steps. Interested applicants were instructed to call the Office of Head Start (OHS) Operations Center at (866) 796-1591 to obtain pre-application materials and additional information. For technical issues accessing the full announcement electronically, ACF provided the Applications Help Desk contact at appsupport@acf.hhs.gov.
