Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2018 ACF OHS CH R03 1326
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), through the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) Office of Head Start (OHS), announced a competitive grant opportunity to select a single grantee to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start services for eligible children and families living in the Virginia localities of Alberta, Dendron, Dinwiddie, Emporia, Lawrenceville, Sussex, and Wakefield. This is a discretionary grant competition (CFDA 93.600) intended to ensure that comprehensive early childhood services are available in the specified service area, covering both child development and family support components that are typical of Head Start and Early Head Start programming.
The funding level available under this opportunity is up to $2,044,191 per year, with an expected one award. The purpose of the award is to support the full scope of Head Start and/or Early Head Start program services for eligible participants, which generally includes early learning and school readiness activities, health and developmental screenings and follow-up, family engagement and support services, and coordination with community resources. While the notice does not break out the exact slots or program model in the excerpt provided, the funding is explicitly intended to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start in the listed cities and surrounding communities, meaning applicants are expected to demonstrate the capacity to deliver services that meet federal Head Start Program Performance Standards and respond to local community needs.
A wide range of entity types are eligible to apply, reflecting the program's community-based approach. Eligible applicants include state, county, and city/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/Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education); and for-profit organizations, including small businesses. In practical terms, this means both traditional public providers (like school divisions or local governments) and private community organizations (including faith-based organizations) can compete, as long as they can meet Head Start requirements and operate at the scale needed for the service area.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number HHS-2018-ACF-OHS-CH-R03-1326 and a creation date of February 8, 2018. The original application closing date was April 9, 2018, and applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Because this is a federal competitive grant, applicants would typically be expected to submit a complete program narrative and supporting documentation that explains their proposed service delivery approach, governance and fiscal systems, staff qualifications and oversight, facilities plans, community partnerships, and how they will ensure compliance, quality improvement, and accountability across all required Head Start and/or Early Head Start components.
For questions or to request additional guidance related to the competition, interested applicants were directed to contact the OHS Operations Center by email at OHSTech@reviewops.org.Apply for HHS 2018 ACF OHS CH R03 1326
