The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), through the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) Office of Head Start (OHS), announced a discretionary grant competition to select one or more organizations to serve as the Head Start and/or Early Head Start grantee for a group of counties in West Virginia: Webster, Randolph, Taylor, Marion, Barbour, Preston, Pocahontas, Monongalia, and Tucker. The purpose of the opportunity is to fund local delivery of comprehensive early childhood services for eligible infants, toddlers, preschool-age children, and their families across these counties, consistent with Head Start and Early Head Start program requirements.
This funding opportunity is identified as “Head Start and/or Early Head Start Grantee -- Webster, Randolph, Taylor, Marion, Barbour, Preston, Pocahontas, Monongalia, and Tucker Counties, West Virginia” under Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2019-ACF-OHS-CH-R03-1406. It is offered as a grant (Funding Instrument Type: Grant) and falls under the Income Security and Social Services activity category, with CFDA number 93.600. In practical terms, applicants are competing to operate the local Head Start and/or Early Head Start program(s) for the service area and to manage the full set of required program components, such as early learning services, family engagement, health and developmental screenings, referrals, and coordination with community partners.
The announcement states that approximately $7,139,472 in annual funding is available for program services in the defined West Virginia counties, and the maximum award amount (award ceiling) is also listed as $7,139,472. The agency anticipated making up to two awards, suggesting that the service area and funding could potentially be split among more than one recipient depending on application outcomes and program design. As with Head Start funding generally, the awarded organization(s) would be responsible for ensuring services are delivered to eligible children and families, maintaining program quality, meeting performance standards, and carrying out administrative, fiscal, and reporting responsibilities tied to federal Head Start and Early Head Start rules.
Eligibility for this competition is broad and includes a wide range of public and private entities. Eligible applicants include state, county, and city or township governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education as well as private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations both with and without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in those categories); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; and small businesses. The description also highlights that public or private nonprofits, including community-based and faith-based organizations, as well as for-profit organizations, are encouraged to compete, reflecting the program’s focus on selecting a capable local operator rather than limiting eligibility to one organizational type.
Key dates included a creation/posting date of September 19, 2018 and an original closing date of November 19, 2018. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Applicants seeking clarifications or additional operational information were directed to contact the OHS Operations Center by email at OHSTech@reviewops.org.
Overall, the opportunity is a competitive federal grant to run Head Start and/or Early Head Start services across nine counties in West Virginia, backed by a little over $7.1 million per year, with up to two expected awards and a wide range of eligible applicant organizations that can demonstrate the capacity to deliver high-quality early childhood and family support services in the specified communities.Apply for HHS 2019 ACF OHS CH R03 1406
