Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2021 ACF OHS CH R02 1879
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), through the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) Office of Head Start (OHS), offered a discretionary grant competition for organizations to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start programs in communities within the state of New Jersey. The purpose of the funding is to support comprehensive early childhood and family services for eligible children and families, consistent with the Head Start and Early Head Start program models. The opportunity indicates that funding may be available across two separately defined service areas in New Jersey, and it notes that the exact service areas could change up until the official funding opportunity announcement is published, so applicants were expected to verify the final geographic/service-area details as part of their planning.
This grant competition (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2021-ACF-OHS-CH-R02-1879; CFDA 93.600) was open to a wide range of applicant types, reflecting the broad network that often delivers Head Start services. Eligible applicants included state, county, and city/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 both with and without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; and small businesses. The announcement also emphasized that applicants could be public entities, private nonprofits (including community-based and faith-based organizations), or for-profit organizations, as long as they were seeking to provide Head Start and/or Early Head Start services to eligible populations.
From a funding perspective, the opportunity listed an award ceiling of $11,213,897 and anticipated making approximately 5 awards, suggesting the potential for multiple grantees operating in distinct service areas or covering different scopes of service. The grant mechanism was a standard federal grant, categorized under Income Security and Social Services, and it was designated as a discretionary funding opportunity, meaning awards would be made through a competitive review process rather than by formula.
Key administrative dates and submission requirements were also specified. The opportunity was created on October 28, 2020, with an original application closing date of January 5, 2021. Applications were required to be submitted electronically, and the deadline on the due date was 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time. For applicants needing clarification while preparing to apply, OHS provided a point of contact through the OHS Operations Center, reachable by email at OHSTech@reviewops.org, which was highlighted as the channel to request additional information, particularly given that the two New Jersey service areas could be revised prior to publication of the final announcement.Apply for HHS 2021 ACF OHS CH R02 1879
