Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2019 ACF OHS CH R06 1505
The Department of Health and Human Services, through the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) Office of Head Start (OHS), opened a competitive grant opportunity to select one organization to serve as the Head Start and/or Early Head Start grantee for Avoyelles Parish, Louisiana. The purpose of the funding is to support comprehensive early childhood and family services for eligible children and their families in that parish, consistent with Head Start and Early Head Start program requirements. This is a discretionary grant competition (CFDA 93.600) focused on income security and social services, and it is intended to ensure local families have access to high-quality early learning, health, and family support services delivered through Head Start and/or Early Head Start.
The annual funding amount available under this opportunity is $2,062,256, and ACF anticipates making one award, meaning a single applicant will be selected to operate services for the defined service area. The funding is meant to cover the delivery of Head Start (generally preschool services for children ages 3 to 5) and/or Early Head Start (services for pregnant people, infants, and toddlers up to age 3), depending on what the applicant proposes and what is needed locally. As with typical Head Start funding, the expectation is that services are comprehensive and family-centered, supporting children s school readiness while also addressing health, nutrition, and parent and family well-being.
Eligibility is broad and includes a wide range of public and private entities. Applicants may include state, county, and city or township governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized tribal governments; public housing authorities or Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (excluding higher education institutions in those nonprofit categories); and for-profit organizations, including small businesses. The announcement explicitly notes that public or private nonprofits, including community-based and faith-based organizations, as well as for-profit entities, may apply, reflecting an open competition for the grantee role as long as the applicant can meet Head Start program expectations and responsibly manage federal funds.
Administratively, the opportunity is identified as Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2019-ACF-OHS-CH-R06-1505, categorized as a grant instrument. The announcement was created on September 19, 2018, with an original application closing date of November 19, 2018. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Organizations seeking clarification or additional technical information were directed to contact the OHS Operations Center by email at OHSTech@reviewops.org.
In practical terms, an applicant considering this opportunity would be proposing to become the local Head Start and/or Early Head Start operator for Avoyelles Parish, taking responsibility for program design, staffing, facilities, compliance, and partnerships needed to deliver full, high-quality services to eligible children and families. The single-award structure underscores that ACF is looking for one capable lead agency to coordinate and provide the full scope of services funded by the annual award amount in the designated parish.Apply for HHS 2019 ACF OHS CH R06 1505
