Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2019 ACF OHS CH R06 1478

This funding opportunity, titled "Head Start and/or Early Head Start Grantee -- Mississippi and Craigshead Counties, Arkansas" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2019-ACF-OHS-CH-R06-1478), 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 deliver Head Start and/or Early Head Start services for eligible children and families living specifically in Mississippi County and Craighead County, Arkansas. The program focus falls under the funding activity area of income security and social services and is associated with CFDA number 93.600.

The announcement invites a wide range of applicants, reflecting the community-based nature of Head Start. Eligible applicants include public entities (such as state, county, and city/township governments), independent school districts, public and state-controlled colleges and universities, private institutions of higher education, federally recognized Native American tribal governments, public housing authorities (including Indian housing authorities), and both nonprofit and for-profit organizations. Nonprofits may apply whether or not they have 501(c)(3) status, as long as they meet the eligibility requirements laid out in the notice. For-profit organizations, including small businesses, are also listed as eligible, which signals an open competition for qualified providers capable of meeting Head Start and Early Head Start performance expectations.

Funding available under this opportunity is substantial: the annual funding amount is listed as $8,702,447, which also appears as the award ceiling. This money is intended to support the full range of Head Start and/or Early Head Start program services, meaning comprehensive early childhood programming rather than only classroom instruction. In practice, Head Start and Early Head Start grants typically support early learning and development, health and developmental screenings, family engagement, and other required comprehensive services for enrolled children and their families, with services tailored to the needs of the local communities served in the two counties.

The agency anticipated making up to three awards (Expected Awards: 3), which suggests the service area and funded enrollment may be split among multiple grantees or that multiple program models could be supported, depending on application quality and program design. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date, with the original closing date listed as November 19, 2018. The opportunity record shows a creation date of September 18, 2018.

Applicants needing clarification or technical assistance were directed to contact the OHS Operations Center by email at OHSTech@reviewops.org.
