Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Head Start Replacement Grantee Westfield, West Springfield and Agawam, Southwick, Tolland, Russell, Blandford, Chester, Middlefield, Montgomery, Huntington and Worthington, Massachusetts" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2010-ACF-OHS-CH-R01-0130), was released by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families (ACF), through the Office of Head Start. It is a discretionary grant intended to fund one organization to operate Head Start services in a defined set of Massachusetts communities: Westfield, West Springfield, Agawam, Southwick, Tolland, Russell, Blandford, Chester, Middlefield, Montgomery, Huntington, and Worthington. The main purpose is continuity of services, meaning ACF is seeking a replacement grantee to keep the local Head Start program running at a level comparable to what the current grantee has been providing.
The funding available is $1,452,184 per year, with an award ceiling listed at the same amount and an award floor of $0. ACF expected to make a single award under this announcement. The program being competed supports a total funded enrollment of 182 children and families, reflecting the scale of services the successful applicant would be expected to sustain or replicate. The announcement is tied to the Head Start CFDA number 93.600, and it is categorized under Income Security and Social Services. A cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants should be prepared to meet Head Start non-federal share expectations as described in the full announcement and Head Start regulations.
Eligibility is specifically limited to local organizations in the community to be served that can deliver Head Start services to eligible children and families across the listed towns. The announcement notes that eligible applicants include local public or private nonprofit organizations (including faith-based organizations) as well as local for-profit organizations. While the broader eligibility list in the source data includes many entity types (such as state and local governments, school districts, institutions of higher education, small businesses, and tribal governments), the controlling eligibility language emphasizes that the applicant must be a local entity positioned to serve the specified service area. Individuals and foreign entities are explicitly not eligible. Faith-based and community organizations that meet the requirements are clearly welcomed to apply.
Key dates for this opportunity were a posted date of June 11, 2010, with an application deadline (original and current closing date) of August 10, 2010. For applications submitted through Grants.gov, the deadline was no later than 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The opportunity was later archived on September 9, 2010, indicating it is a past competition, but the details remain useful as a record of how ACF structured the replacement-grantee process for these communities.
For organizations interested in applying at the time, ACF directed applicants to contact the OHS Operations Center at (866) 796-1591 to request pre-application materials and additional guidance. Applicants needing help accessing the full announcement electronically were advised to contact the ACF Applications Help Desk at appsupport@acf.hhs.gov.
