This funding opportunity is a discretionary federal grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Head Start (OHS), seeking a single organization to serve as the Migrant and Seasonal Head Start (MSHS) grantee for a defined service area in Wisconsin. The funded program is intended to deliver Head Start services specifically tailored to eligible migrant and seasonal farmworker families with young children living in Green Lake, Fond Du Lac, Waushara, Winnebago, Dodge, Jefferson, Portage, Waupaca, and Wood Counties. In practical terms, the selected grantee would be responsible for operating (directly or through partners) comprehensive early childhood services that meet Migrant and Seasonal Head Start requirements, reaching children and families whose work and living situations may involve frequent mobility, seasonal employment patterns, and related barriers to stable early learning and family support.
The opportunity is identified as “Migrant and Seasonal Head Start Grantee - Green Lake, Fond Du Lac, Waushara, Winnebago, Dodge, Jefferson, Portage, Waupaca, and Wood Counties, Wisconsin” with Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2017-ACF-OHS-CH-R12-1279. It is funded under CFDA 93.600 (Head Start), within the broad federal activity area of Income Security and Social Services.

The annual funding amount available is $1,777,457, listed as the award ceiling and described as available each year to support program operations. These funds are intended to cover the delivery of Migrant and Seasonal Head Start program services for eligible children and their families across the listed counties. Because this is a Head Start competition, the successful applicant would typically be expected to demonstrate the capacity to meet Head Start Program Performance Standards, provide high-quality early childhood education and related services, and ensure strong governance, fiscal oversight, staffing, facilities, and community partnerships suitable for serving migrant and seasonal communities.
Eligibility is broad and includes a wide range of public and private entities. Eligible applicants include local governments (county, city, or township), independent school districts, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, federally recognized Native American tribal governments, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), for-profit organizations other than small businesses, and small businesses. The description also highlights that local public or private non-profit organizations (including community-based and faith-based organizations) and for-profit agencies may apply, as long as they can operate the required services within the community and meet all program requirements.
The notice was created on May 31, 2017, with an original application closing date of July 31, 2017. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date.
