Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2021 ACF OHS CI R11 1969
The American Indian/Alaska Native Head Start Grantee opportunity for Polk County, Texas is a discretionary federal grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), through the Office of Head Start (OHS). Its purpose is to select an organization to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start services specifically for eligible American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) children and families who live in Polk County. In practical terms, the award is meant to fund early childhood education, comprehensive child development supports, and family-focused services for infants, toddlers, and preschool-age children in this community, consistent with Head Start and Early Head Start program standards.
Funding is offered as a grant under CFDA 93.600 (Head Start). The announcement makes available up to $833,891 per year to support program operations, and ACF expects to make one award, meaning a single applicant will be selected to serve as the grantee for the defined service area. Because it is an annual amount, applicants should treat the figure as the base operating level for delivering services each year, rather than a one-time lump sum.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of entities that can demonstrate capacity to run Head Start and/or Early Head Start programming. 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; other Native American tribal organizations; public and Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (including community-based and faith-based organizations); for-profit organizations (including small businesses and other for-profits). The key requirement is that the applicant must be prepared to deliver high-quality Head Start and/or Early Head Start services tailored to AI/AN children and families residing in Polk County, Texas.
The funding opportunity number is HHS-2021-ACF-OHS-CI-R11-1969, and it was posted on May 11, 2021. The original application deadline was July 12, 2021, with electronic submissions due no later than 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Organizations interested in details beyond the basic synopsis, such as application package questions or competition logistics, are directed to contact the OHS Operations Center by email at OHSTech@reviewops.org.
Overall, this competition is essentially a request for a qualified provider to take responsibility for operating Head Start and/or Early Head Start in Polk County for AI/AN families, supported by a yearly federal grant up to $833,891, with the expectation that one grantee will be selected to run the program and deliver the full set of required early childhood and family support services associated with Head Start funding.Apply for HHS 2021 ACF OHS CI R11 1969
