Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2020 ACF OHS CH R07 1646

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), aimed at selecting one or more organizations to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start services in a defined service area in Missouri. The funded program(s) are intended to deliver comprehensive early childhood development and family support services to eligible children and families living in Johnson, Lafayette, Ray, Chariton, Carroll, Pettis, and Saline Counties. The announcement is essentially a competition to identify capable operators that can meet Head Start and/or Early Head Start program requirements and provide high-quality services across these counties.

The opportunity makes approximately $4,458,535 available each year to support program operations in the service area, with an anticipated total of two awards. The award ceiling listed matches the annual amount available, indicating that applicants should plan around a program budget in that range, depending on how funding is split across the expected awards and how the applicant proposes to deliver services. Because this is Head Start/Early Head Start funding under CFDA 93.600 (now commonly referenced as Assistance Listing 93.600), the money is specifically intended for direct program services for eligible children and their families rather than general community development, and recipients would be expected to follow the federal Head Start Program Performance Standards and related administrative and fiscal rules.

A wide range of applicant types are eligible to apply, reflecting the way Head Start programs are often delivered through diverse community providers. Eligible applicants include state, county, and local governments; independent school districts; public and private institutions of higher education; federally recognized tribal governments; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status; and for-profit organizations (including small businesses and other for-profit entities). The announcement also explicitly notes that community-based and faith-based organizations may apply, which is consistent with longstanding Head Start eligibility rules that allow many organizational models as long as the applicant can meet program and compliance expectations.

Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number (HHS-2020-ACF-OHS-CH-R07-1646) and the fact that applications had to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the closing date listed in the notice (originally November 12, 2019). Applicants seeking clarification or additional information were directed to contact the OHS Operations Center by email at OHSTech@reviewops.org. Overall, the opportunity is designed to ensure continued access to Head Start and/or Early Head Start in these Missouri counties by competitively awarding funds to organizations prepared to provide comprehensive early learning, health, and family support services consistent with federal Head Start requirements.
