Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2020 ACF OHS HP R05 1666
This funding opportunity is a discretionary grant competition from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Head Start (OHS), focused on expanding services for infants and toddlers in Burnett, Clark, Rusk, Sawyer, Taylor, and Washburn Counties in Wisconsin. The program is listed under CFDA 93.600 (Head Start) and is designed to increase access to high-quality, comprehensive Early Head Start services for low-income children from birth to age three and their families. The competition allows applicants to propose either an Early Head Start-Child Care (EHS-CC) Partnership model, which links Early Head Start with local child care providers to deliver full-day, full-year care that meets Head Start Program Performance Standards, or a direct expansion of Early Head Start services where the grantee operates the program itself.
ACF announced approximately $1,458,703 available for competitive award, with an expected total of one award (meaning a single recipient is anticipated to receive the full amount up to the award ceiling). The purpose of the funding is to build local capacity in the targeted Wisconsin counties by supporting more Early Head Start slots and strengthening the quality and comprehensiveness of services for eligible families. In practice, this typically means funding that supports early learning and development services, health and developmental screenings, family engagement and support services, and coordination with community resources. For EHS-CC Partnerships specifically, the grant is intended to help align child care settings with Early Head Start requirements, improving quality while expanding the supply of reliable infant and toddler care for working families.
Eligibility is broad and includes a wide range of public and private entities, as long as they meet the eligibility requirements referenced in section 645A of the Head Start Act. Eligible applicants include state, county, city, or township governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized tribal governments; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education); for-profit organizations (other than small businesses); and small businesses. This wide eligibility is intended to encourage applications from established Head Start operators as well as other capable community-based organizations and child care partners that can meet the program standards and demonstrate the ability to serve low-income infants, toddlers, and families effectively.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number HHS-2020-ACF-OHS-HP-R05-1666 and an original closing date of November 15, 2019. Applications were required to be submitted electronically through Grants.gov by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. ACF also directs prospective applicants to federal grant application guidance at https://www.acf.hhs.gov/grants/howto#chapter-4, which covers registration steps, the submission process, and how the federal review process works. For additional program-specific questions, applicants were invited to contact the program office via email at EHS.CCPartnerships@acf.hhs.gov.
Overall, the opportunity is aimed at strengthening the early care and education system for infants and toddlers in the specified Wisconsin counties by expanding Early Head Start reach and, where applicable, improving the quality and supply of community child care through formal partnerships. The funding is structured to support comprehensive, standards-based services and to ensure that very young children in low-income families have greater access to stable, developmentally appropriate care along with the health, family support, and community coordination elements that are central to Early Head Start.Apply for HHS 2020 ACF OHS HP R05 1666
