Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2019 ACF OHS CH R04 1521
This grant opportunity is a discretionary funding competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Head Start (OHS). The goal is to select one or more organizations to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start services for eligible children and families living in a multi-county service area in Florida: Collier, Desoto, Glades, Hardee, Hendry, Highlands, Flagler, Indian River, Palm Beach, and Putman Counties. In practical terms, applicants are competing to become (or continue as) the local Head Start/Early Head Start grantee responsible for delivering comprehensive early childhood programming and related family supports across those counties.
The funding available under this announcement is listed as $16,676,041 per year. That figure represents the annual amount intended to support program operations providing Head Start and/or Early Head Start services in the defined service area. The opportunity anticipates making about four awards, which suggests OHS may fund multiple grantees or service approaches to cover the geographic area and eligible population, depending on how applications are structured and what OHS determines is needed for coverage and quality.
A wide range of applicant types are eligible to apply. Eligibility includes public entities (state, county, and city/township governments), independent school districts, public and state-controlled colleges and universities, private institutions of higher education, federally recognized tribal governments, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, and both nonprofit and for-profit organizations. Nonprofits may apply whether or not they have 501(c)(3) status, and small businesses are also listed as eligible. The description specifically notes public or private nonprofits, including community-based and faith-based organizations, as well as for-profit organizations, emphasizing that the competition is open to different organizational models as long as applicants can meet Head Start program requirements and deliver services effectively.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity is categorized as discretionary and uses a grant funding instrument. The funding activity category is Income Security and Social Services, and the associated CFDA number is 93.600 (Head Start). The funding opportunity number is HHS-2019-ACF-OHS-CH-R04-1521.
