Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2024 ACF OHS CH R7 0092

This discretionary grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number: HHS 2024 ACF OHS CH R7 0092; CFDA 93.600) is being offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families, Office of Head Start. It invites organizations to compete to become Head Start and/or Early Head Start recipients serving eligible children and families in specific, defined service areas within the state of Kansas. The intent is to fund local programs that deliver comprehensive early childhood services, which typically include early learning, health, nutrition, and family support components consistent with Head Start and Early Head Start requirements.

A key point in the announcement is that it is a forecast that has been updated. The government notes revisions to the estimated posting date and the estimated application due date, and it also updated the estimated total funding amount, the award ceiling, and the expected number of awards. In other words, some of the numbers and timelines previously shown were adjusted, and applicants should expect that service area details and projections could still change again before the official Notice of Funding Opportunity is posted.

Funding will be awarded for Kansas communities that have clearly defined Head Start and/or Early Head Start service areas. The announcement emphasizes that the number of service areas listed in the forecast are projections and may be updated prior to the final posting. Because of that, prospective applicants are expected to check the "Link to Additional Information" referenced in the full posting to see the current list of available service areas, each service area’s funding level, and any updates that occur before the competition is formally posted.

Eligibility is broad and includes many types of entities that can operate early childhood programs. Eligible applicants include 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 with or without 501(c)(3) status (as long as they are not institutions of higher education in those nonprofit categories); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; and small businesses. The description also specifically highlights public or private nonprofit organizations, including community-based and faith-based organizations, and for-profit organizations as potential applicants, reflecting the program’s openness to different organizational models as long as they can meet Head Start and Early Head Start program expectations.

In terms of scale, the opportunity lists an award ceiling of $7,881,968 and anticipates making about 3 awards. Those figures signal relatively large program operations and suggest that awards may cover substantial service delivery responsibilities in one or more Kansas service areas, depending on how the funding is divided. The opportunity was created on October 10, 2023, and it lists an original closing date of December 14, 2023. Applications must be submitted electronically, and the deadline is no later than 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the stated due date.

For questions or clarification while preparing to apply, the announcement directs applicants to contact the OHS Operations Center by email at OHSgrants@koniag-gs.com. Applicants are also encouraged to rely on the official service area listing and updates in the referenced additional information link, since the forecasted service areas and related funding levels may change prior to the final release of the funding notice.
