Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2019 ACF OHS CH R06 1511
The grant opportunity titled "Head Start and/or Early Head Start Grantee - Bienville, Jackson, Red River, Winn, Natchitoches, and De Soto Parishes, Louisiana" is a discretionary grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), specifically the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Head Start (OHS). It seeks an organization (or organizations) to deliver Head Start and/or Early Head Start services for eligible children and families living across six Louisiana parishes: Bienville, Jackson, Red River, Winn, Natchitoches, and De Soto. A key detail in this announcement is that it reflects a consolidation of service areas and funding. The service area and funding originally associated with a separate opportunity (HHS-2019-ACF-OHS-CH-R06-1510, covering Bienville, Jackson, Red River, and Winn) were combined into this larger, expanded service area that now includes Natchitoches and De Soto as well. In practical terms, applicants are competing to operate early childhood services across the full combined region rather than only the original four-parish footprint.
The purpose of the funding is to support direct Head Start and/or Early Head Start program operations. That generally means comprehensive early childhood education and development services along with family support components that are characteristic of Head Start programs, targeted to children and families who meet eligibility requirements. While the announcement does not list specific program options or required enrollment slots in the excerpt provided, the intent is clear: the selected grantee(s) must be prepared to run early learning and family-serving programming for qualifying residents within the defined parishes, consistent with Head Start and/or Early Head Start expectations and federal oversight.
Financially, the opportunity makes available $5,291,530 per year to provide program services in the combined service area, and the notice lists an award ceiling of $5,291,530. The opportunity anticipates up to three awards, indicating that OHS may fund more than one organization to cover the geographic area or service needs, depending on the application outcomes and program design proposals. The funding is issued as a grant under the funding activity category "Income Security and Social Services" and is associated with CFDA (now commonly referenced as Assistance Listing) number 93.600, which corresponds to Head Start.
Eligibility for applicants is broad and includes many public and private entities. 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; nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; and small businesses. The announcement also explicitly notes that public or private nonprofit organizations (including community-based and faith-based organizations) and for-profit organizations may apply, emphasizing that a wide range of organizational types can compete as long as they can meet program requirements and deliver services effectively.
From an administrative standpoint, the funding opportunity number is HHS 2019 ACF OHS CH R06 1511. It was created on September 26, 2018, with an original application closing date of November 26, 2018.
