Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2020 ACF OHS CH R04 1691
This funding opportunity, titled "Head Start and/or Early Head Start Grantee -- The Cities of Georgiana, Evergreen, Troy, Ozark, Luverne, Elba, Enterprise, Greenville, Midland City, Brundidge, Union Springs and Monroeville, Alabama," is a discretionary federal grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) through the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Head Start (OHS). The purpose is to select one or more organizations to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start programs that serve eligible children and families living in the listed Alabama cities. In practical terms, the award supports early childhood education, health, family well-being, and related comprehensive services for infants, toddlers, and preschool-age children in communities where a grantee is being competed.
The announcement makes available $5,977,969 per year in ongoing annual funding to deliver Head Start and/or Early Head Start services in the service area. The notice indicates an expected two awards, suggesting ACF may split the service area, the age groups served, or the program approach between more than one grantee depending on the applications received and the needs identified. The award ceiling is also listed as $5,977,969, which reflects the maximum annual amount available under this competition. The program falls under the federal assistance listing (CFDA) 93.600, the long-standing Head Start program authority, and is categorized under Income Security and Social Services, consistent with Head Start's role in supporting low-income families through comprehensive early childhood services.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of public and private entities that are capable of running large-scale early childhood programs. Eligible applicants include state, county, and city or 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; nonprofits with and without 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education); and for-profit organizations (including small businesses). The description also explicitly notes that public or private nonprofit organizations, including community-based and faith-based organizations, as well as for-profit organizations, may apply. This breadth is typical for Head Start competitions, where ACF focuses on an applicant's capacity to meet Head Start Program Performance Standards and deliver high-quality services rather than limiting eligibility to a narrow organizational type.
The opportunity number is HHS-2020-ACF-OHS-CH-R04-1691, and the funding instrument is a grant. The posting lists a creation date of September 12, 2019, with an original closing date of November 12, 2019. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Organizations interested in details beyond what is in the summary, including questions about the competition or technical issues related to applying, were directed to contact the OHS Operations Center by email at OHSTech@reviewops.org.
At a high level, applicants competing for this award would be proposing to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start within the named Alabama cities, ensuring services are accessible to eligible families and are delivered in compliance with federal requirements. While the summary text does not list specific program design requirements, Head Start and Early Head Start grants generally support center-based and/or home-based early learning and development services, family engagement, screenings and referrals related to health and development, and coordination with community partners, all tailored to the needs of children from low-income households and other eligible circumstances in the service area.Apply for HHS 2020 ACF OHS CH R04 1691
