Opportunity Summary:

This funding opportunity, titled "Head Start Replacement Grantee Morrisania Section of the Bronx, New York" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2010-ACF-OHS-CH-R02-0132), was published by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF). It is a discretionary grant under the Head Start program (CFDA 93.600) within the broader activity category of Income Security and Social Services. The purpose is to select a new organization to take over and continue Head Start services in the Morrisania section of the Bronx, maintaining support for eligible children and their families in the same community previously served by the former grantee, La Peninsula Head Start Organization, Inc.

ACF planned to make a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an estimated annual funding amount of $1,416,758. The award ceiling matches that amount ($1,416,758), with an award floor of $0, reflecting that the final award amount would depend on the approved application and budget. The funding is intended to sustain Head Start program operations at the same general scale as before, since the former grantee had been funded to serve a total enrollment of 120 children and families. The announcement also indicates that cost sharing or matching is required, meaning the selected grantee would need to meet Head Start non-federal share requirements consistent with program rules.

Eligibility is focused on organizations located in, and capable of serving, the Morrisania community in the Bronx. Applicants may include local public or private nonprofit organizations (including faith-based organizations) as well as local for-profit organizations. The eligibility list also reflects a broad range of entity types that could apply when they meet the local and service-area requirement, including various levels of government, housing authorities, school districts, institutions of higher education, tribal governments and organizations, and small businesses. However, individuals and foreign entities are explicitly not eligible to receive awards under this announcement. Faith-based and community organizations are specifically noted as eligible so long as they meet the standard program and grant requirements.

Key dates show the opportunity was posted on June 11, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 10, 2010, and an archive date of September 9, 2010. Applications submitted electronically through Grants.gov were required to be received by 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date, which is a strict cutoff applicants would have needed to plan around for timely submission. For organizations seeking guidance before applying, the notice directs interested applicants to contact the Office of Head Start (OHS) Operations Center at (866) 796-1591 to request pre-application materials and additional information.
