Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2017 ACF OHS CH R05 1244
This grant opportunity, titled "Head Start and/or Early Head Start Grantee - The City of Detroit (Zip Codes 48219 and 48235), Michigan," is a discretionary federal funding announcement from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Head Start (OHS). It seeks a single organization to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start services for eligible children and families living specifically in Detroit zip codes 48219 and 48235. The intent is to fund a high-quality, comprehensive birth-to-five early childhood program, meaning applicants can propose an integrated model that includes both Early Head Start (typically prenatal to age 3) and Head Start (typically ages 3 to 5), or they may propose to run only one of the two programs if that better meets community needs and their organizational capacity.
The program focus is on providing the full scope of Head Start and Early Head Start services, not just classroom instruction or child care. In practice, that implies comprehensive early learning and development supports, family engagement and family support services, health and developmental screenings and referrals, and other required Head Start program components designed to improve school readiness and overall child and family well-being. The eligible service area is narrowly defined by the two Detroit zip codes listed, so applications would be expected to demonstrate strong local knowledge, a realistic service delivery plan for families in those neighborhoods, and the ability to meet federal Head Start Program Performance Standards.
Funding is advertised at approximately $2,843,669 per year to deliver services to eligible children and their families within the target area, with an award ceiling listed as $2,482,833. The opportunity anticipates one award, meaning ACF expects to select one grantee to serve as the program operator for this service area. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is Income Security and Social Services under CFDA 93.600, which is the federal catalog number associated with Head Start.
A wide range of applicant types are eligible, reflecting the different kinds of organizations that often operate Head Start programs. Eligible applicants include public entities such as state, county, and city or township governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; public housing authorities; and federally recognized Native American tribal governments. It also includes private and nonprofit organizations, including 501(c)(3) nonprofits, nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (excluding higher education institutions), private institutions of higher education, and for-profit organizations (including small businesses as well as for-profits other than small businesses). The announcement explicitly notes that community-based and faith-based organizations are among those encouraged or permitted to apply, as long as they meet the applicable requirements.
The opportunity was created on December 16, 2016, with an original application closing date of February 14, 2017. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date.
