Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2020 ACF OHS CH R06 1758
The grant opportunity titled "Head Start and/or Early Head Start Grantee -- West Feliciana Parish, Louisiana" is a discretionary federal funding competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), specifically the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Head Start (OHS). It is designed to select a single organization to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start services for eligible children and families living in West Feliciana Parish, Louisiana. The core purpose is to fund comprehensive early childhood programming that supports school readiness and family well-being for low-income infants, toddlers, and preschool-aged children, consistent with Head Start and Early Head Start program expectations.
This opportunity is offered as a grant under Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2020-ACF-OHS-CH-R06-1758 and is associated with CFDA (now commonly referenced as Assistance Listing) 93.600, which is the Head Start program. The activity category is listed as Income Security and Social Services, reflecting the program's role in providing wraparound supports, not just early education. Although the announcement does not break out separate slots for Head Start versus Early Head Start, it makes clear that the funding is intended to deliver Head Start and/or Early Head Start program services across the parish, meaning applicants can propose a model that fits local needs while still meeting federal performance standards and service requirements.
The estimated annual funding available is $970,021, and the notice anticipates making one award, so applicants are competing to become the sole grantee for this service area. In practical terms, that amount represents the annual operating level for delivering the required Head Start/Early Head Start components, which typically include early learning services, health screenings and follow-up, nutrition support, family engagement and case management, services for children with disabilities, and coordination with community partners. The award ceiling is also listed as $970,021, indicating the maximum expected annual amount under this competition.
Eligibility is broad and includes a 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; 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 (excluding institutions of higher education in those nonprofit categories); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; and small businesses. The announcement also explicitly notes that public or private nonprofit organizations, including community-based and faith-based organizations, as well as for-profit organizations, may apply. This wide eligibility is meant to ensure the federal government can identify a capable local provider with the capacity to meet Head Start Program Performance Standards and manage federal grant compliance.
Key administrative details include the posting (creation) date of September 13, 2019, and an original application closing date of November 12, 2019. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Organizations interested in more information were directed to contact the OHS Operations Center via email at OHSTech@reviewops.org, which suggests applicants could request technical assistance or clarification related to the application process and requirements.
Overall, this funding opportunity is essentially a competition to designate an operator responsible for delivering federally funded Head Start and/or Early Head Start services in West Feliciana Parish. The selected grantee would be expected to use the roughly $970,021 in annual funding to provide comprehensive early childhood and family support services to eligible local families while complying with federal program rules, reporting requirements, and quality standards established by ACF and the Office of Head Start.Apply for HHS 2020 ACF OHS CH R06 1758
