Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2019 ACF OHS CH R06 1503
This funding opportunity comes from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Administration for Children and Families (ACF), specifically the Office of Head Start (OHS). It is a discretionary grant competition to select one or more organizations to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start programs for eligible children and families living in a multi-county service area in Texas: Coke, Concho, Crockett, Irion, Kimble, Menard, Reagan, Schleicher, Tom Green, and Sutton Counties. The goal is to fund local operators that can deliver comprehensive early childhood services that Head Start and Early Head Start are known for, serving children and supporting families across these counties.
The annual funding amount available is $6,058,659, which functions as the award ceiling listed for this announcement. ACF anticipates making about two awards, which suggests the service area or program model may be split among multiple grantees or that more than one applicant could be funded to cover the full geographic need. The assistance listing tied to this program is CFDA 93.600 (Head Start), and the funding activity category is described as Income Security and Social Services, reflecting the program's role in strengthening family stability and child development outcomes alongside early learning.
A wide range of applicant types are eligible to apply. This includes state, county, and local governments; independent school districts; public and private institutions of higher education; federally recognized tribal governments; public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations both with and without 501(c)(3) status; and for-profit organizations, including small businesses. The announcement also explicitly notes that community-based and faith-based organizations may apply, as well as for-profit entities. In practice, applicants are expected to demonstrate they can meet Head Start Program Performance Standards and provide the full set of required services, either directly or through strong partnerships, across the counties listed.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number HHS 2019 ACF OHS CH R06 1503 and a creation date of September 19, 2018. The original application closing date was November 19, 2018, with electronic submissions due no later than 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Applicants seeking clarification or operational guidance were directed to contact the OHS Operations Center by email at OHSTech@reviewops.org, which is the point of contact provided for additional information related to the competition and application process.
Overall, this opportunity is essentially a competitive solicitation to identify qualified organizations to run Head Start and/or Early Head Start services in the specified Texas counties, backed by a little over $6.0 million per year in federal funds. The competition is structured to ensure the selected grantee(s) can provide high-quality early childhood education and related family supports at scale, across a largely regional and multi-county footprint, consistent with federal Head Start and Early Head Start requirements.Apply for HHS 2019 ACF OHS CH R06 1503
