Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2020 ACF OHS CH R10 1737
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), through the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) Office of Head Start (OHS), announced a discretionary grant competition to select one or more organizations to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start services for eligible children and families in a specific multi-county service area spanning two states. The geographic area covered by this opportunity includes Hood River, Wasco, and Jefferson Counties in Oregon, and Skamania and Klickitat Counties in Washington. The intent is to fund comprehensive early childhood programs that meet Head Start and/or Early Head Start performance standards and deliver the associated family-focused supports for qualifying low-income children and households in those counties.
The opportunity is identified as "Head Start and/or Early Head Start Grantee -- Hood River, Wasco, and Jefferson Counties, Oregon and Skamania and Klickitat Counties, Washington" with funding opportunity number HHS-2020-ACF-OHS-CH-R10-1737. It falls under the "Income Security and Social Services" funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.600 (Head Start). The funding instrument is a grant, and the opportunity category is discretionary, meaning awards are made competitively rather than by formula.
Annual funding of up to $5,312,965 is available to support services in the target counties, with an award ceiling listed at $5,312,965. The announcement indicates an expectation of two awards, suggesting ACF may fund up to two grantees to cover all or portions of the service area, depending on how applications propose to organize and deliver services and how OHS makes final award decisions. The funds are intended to provide Head Start and/or Early Head Start program services, which typically include early learning and development services, health and developmental screenings and referrals, nutrition supports, family engagement, and other comprehensive services aligned with federal Head Start requirements.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types 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/Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education when applicable); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; and small businesses. The description also explicitly notes that public or private non-profit organizations, including community-based and faith-based organizations, and for-profit organizations may apply, reflecting the program's openness to a range of potential operators so long as they can meet Head Start and/or Early Head Start requirements.
Key dates provided in the source data show the opportunity was created on September 13, 2019, with 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.

In practical terms, this competition was designed to select qualified organizations capable of operating federally funded early childhood education and family support programs across the listed Oregon and Washington counties, using up to about $5.31 million per year to serve eligible children and families through Head Start and/or Early Head Start services under the oversight of ACF's Office of Head Start.Apply for HHS 2020 ACF OHS CH R10 1737
