Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2020 ACF OHS CH R02 1748
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), through the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) and the Office of Head Start (OHS), announced a discretionary grant competition to select a single grantee to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start services for eligible children and families living in the Washington Heights and Inwood communities of Manhattan, New York. The intent of the opportunity is to fund a local provider that can deliver comprehensive early childhood programming and family supports consistent with Head Start and Early Head Start requirements, targeted specifically to families residing in these neighborhoods.
This funding opportunity is listed as "Head Start and/or Early Head Start Grantee -- The Communities of Washington Heights and Inwood within Manhattan, New York" under Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2020-ACF-OHS-CH-R02-1748. The assistance listing (CFDA) is 93.600, which corresponds to Head Start. The award is structured as a grant, and it falls under the broader activity category of income security and social services, reflecting the program's combined focus on early learning, family well-being, and supportive services.
The announcement indicates that approximately $960,729 per year is available for the selected applicant, and the award ceiling is also $960,729, signaling that the expectation is to make one award at roughly that annual level. The opportunity lists an expected number of awards of 1, meaning the competition is designed to designate one organization as the grantee responsible for delivering services in the defined service area.
Eligibility is broad and includes a wide range 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; nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (as long as they are not institutions of higher education in those categories); and for-profit organizations, including small businesses. The description also explicitly notes that public or private nonprofit organizations, including community-based and faith-based organizations, as well as for-profit organizations, may apply, as long as they can meet Head Start and/or Early Head Start program expectations.
Key dates provided in the source information include a creation date of September 12, 2019, and an original closing date of November 12, 2019. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the listed due date. For applicants seeking clarification or additional operational details, the notice directs inquiries to the OHS Operations Center via email at OHSTech@reviewops.org.
In practical terms, this competition is about identifying an organization with the capacity to run high-quality early childhood services for infants, toddlers, and/or preschool-aged children (depending on whether the applicant proposes Early Head Start, Head Start, or a combination) and to support families in a way that aligns with Head Start performance standards. The funding amount reflects an annual operating level to serve the eligible population in Washington Heights and Inwood, and the single-award structure means the selected provider would be the primary responsible entity for delivering the Head Start/Early Head Start program services funded under this announcement in that part of Manhattan.Apply for HHS 2020 ACF OHS CH R02 1748
