Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2016 ACF OHS CH R07 1151
The Head Start Grantee - Geary County, Kansas funding opportunity (HHS 2016 ACF OHS CH R07 1151) is a discretionary federal grant competition run by the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Head Start (OHS). The purpose is to select one organization to operate Head Start services for eligible children and families living in Geary County, Kansas. The grant falls under CFDA 93.600 (Head Start) and the funding activity category is Income Security and Social Services.
A key point in this announcement is that the Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) has been modified. The application due date was changed, and updates were made to Sections III.2 and IV.2 of the FOA. Because of those revisions, the Grants.gov electronic application package was also updated, and applicants are required to re-download the grant application package and use the revised version when submitting. The FOA also notes that there are specific instructions in Section IV.2 on how to upload three separate application files, which suggests that applicants need to pay close attention to formatting and submission requirements to avoid technical disqualification.
Funding is available in the amount of $1,400,851 per year to support the delivery of Head Start program services. The announcement anticipates making a single award (Expected Awards: 1), with an award ceiling listed at $1,400,851, indicating the full annual amount is intended for the selected grantee to run the program in the county. While the summary does not list program options or enrollment numbers, the expectation is that the funded organization will deliver the full range of Head Start services required by federal standards, typically including early childhood education, health and developmental screenings, family engagement and support services, and coordination with community resources for enrolled children and their families.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of local entities that are capable of operating a Head Start program. Eligible applicants include county governments; city or township governments; 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 and Indian housing authorities; nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (as long as they are not institutions of higher education in those nonprofit categories); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; and small businesses. The FOA explicitly welcomes local public or private nonprofit organizations, including community-based and faith-based organizations, as well as for-profit agencies within the community. Faith-based organizations are eligible as long as they meet the standard eligibility requirements, and the FOA points applicants to ACF policy guidance on grants to faith-based organizations.
The FOA is also clear about who cannot apply. Applications from individuals, including sole proprietorships, are not eligible and will be disqualified from competitive review. Foreign entities are also not eligible and will be similarly disqualified. This means applicants need to have an established organizational structure that meets the federal definition of an eligible entity and should ensure their registration and application materials reflect that status accurately.
For applicant support or questions, the announcement directs interested parties to contact the OHS Operations Center by email at OHSTech@reviewops.org. The original closing date listed in the source data is December 15, 2015, but because the FOA notes a modified due date, prospective applicants would need to rely on the updated FOA version and the revised Grants.gov package for the correct deadline and submission instructions.Apply for HHS 2016 ACF OHS CH R07 1151
