Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2019 ACF OHS HM 1393
The Migrant and Seasonal Early Head Start Expansion and Early Head Start-Child Care Partnership Grants opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2019 ACF OHS HM 1393) is a discretionary federal grant program administered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), through the Office of Head Start (OHS). It is listed under CFDA 93.600 and falls within the broad area of income security and social services. The program is aimed specifically at improving and expanding early childhood services for low-income migrant and seasonal families with infants and toddlers, a group that often faces added barriers like frequent moves, seasonal employment patterns, and limited access to stable, high-quality child care.
ACF is making about $6.1 million available through a competitive process, with an expectation of roughly eight awards. Individual awards may be up to $1,000,000. Grant funds are intended to expand access to comprehensive, high-quality services either by growing Early Head Start (EHS) services directly or by building and strengthening Early Head Start-Child Care (EHS-CC) Partnerships. In practice, that means applicants can propose to increase the number of infant and toddler slots and improve service coverage for eligible children, while ensuring that services meet the standards and comprehensive approach associated with Early Head Start. For EHS-CC Partnerships, the focus is on coordinating EHS resources and standards with child care providers so families can access full-day, full-year care that is both convenient for working parents and aligned with Early Head Start expectations for quality and child development supports.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of public and private entities, as long as they meet the eligibility requirements referenced in section 645A of the Head Start Act. Eligible applicants include state and local governments (such as counties, cities, and townships), independent school districts, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, federally recognized Tribal governments, public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities, nonprofit organizations (including those with or without 501(c)(3) status), for-profit organizations other than small businesses, and small businesses. The opportunity also explicitly notes that applicants may include community-based or faith-based organizations, reflecting an interest in reaching providers that are already embedded in the communities served by migrant and seasonal workers.
The application timeline listed shows a posting/creation date of October 29, 2018, with an original closing date of November 30, 2018. Applications were required to be submitted electronically through Grants.gov by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. ACF points prospective applicants to its general grant application guidance at https://www.acf.hhs.gov/grants/howto#chapter-4, which walks through registration steps, the Grants.gov submission process, and how the federal review process works. For questions or additional information tied to this specific opportunity, applicants are invited to contact ACF via email at EHS.CCPartnerships@acf.hhs.gov.
Overall, the grant opportunity is designed to increase the availability of reliable, high-quality early care and development services for migrant and seasonal infants and toddlers by either expanding Early Head Start directly or creating partnerships that raise the quality and coordination of child care options. The underlying goal is to ensure that very young children in migrant and seasonal farmworker and related communities can access stable early learning, health, and family supports that match their families' work realities and address the challenges that come with seasonal and mobile lifestyles.Apply for HHS 2019 ACF OHS HM 1393
