Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2020 ACF OHS HP 1852
The Early Head Start Expansion and Early Head Start-Child Care Partnership Grants opportunity 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). The core purpose is to increase the supply of high-quality, comprehensive services for low-income infants and toddlers (and their families) by either expanding Early Head Start (EHS) services directly or by building and strengthening Early Head Start-Child Care (EHS-CC) Partnerships. In practical terms, the funding is aimed at creating more slots and improving access to full, developmentally appropriate early learning and family supports for children from birth to age three, especially in communities where those services are limited.
ACF indicated that about 100 million dollars would be available in total under this competition, with an estimated 60 awards expected. Individual awards could be substantial, with an announced award ceiling of $21,096,468, though actual award sizes typically vary based on the proposed scope, local needs, and the applicant's capacity to deliver services at scale while meeting Head Start Program Performance Standards and other federal requirements. The funding activity category is listed under Income Security and Social Services, and the assistance listing (CFDA) number associated with this opportunity is 93.600, which corresponds to Head Start/Early Head Start-related federal assistance.
Eligible applicants are broad and include many types of public and private entities. Public-sector applicants can include state, county, and city or township governments, independent school districts, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, and public housing authorities (including Indian housing authorities). Tribal governments that are federally recognized are also eligible. On the private side, nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status, nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), private institutions of higher education, and for-profit organizations (including small businesses and other for-profits) may apply, as long as they meet the eligibility requirements referenced in section 42 U.S.C. 9840A of the Head Start Act. The emphasis on both EHS expansion and EHS-CC partnerships signals that ACF is looking not only for providers that can operate Early Head Start directly, but also for organizations capable of coordinating with child care partners to deliver Early Head Start-quality services in mixed-delivery settings.
The opportunity was published under Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2020-ACF-OHS-HP-1852, with a creation date of July 23, 2020, and an original application deadline of September 21, 2020. Applications were required to be submitted electronically through Grants.gov by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. For applicants needing help or clarification, the notice points to an email contact (OHSTech@reviewops.org) and directs applicants to ACF's "How to Apply for Grants" guidance webpage, which explains the federal application process, Grants.gov registration and submission steps, and how the review process works.Apply for HHS 2020 ACF OHS HP 1852
