Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2019 ACF OHS CM R12 1446
The grant opportunity titled "Migrant and Seasonal Head Start Grantee -- The Cities of Avenal, Hanford, Corcoran, Armona, Lemoore, and Kettleman City, California" is a discretionary federal funding competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Administration for Children and Families (ACF), through the Office of Head Start (OHS). It is designed to fund one organization to operate Migrant and Seasonal Head Start (MSHS) services for eligible children and families living in the listed Kings County area communities: Avenal, Hanford, Corcoran, Armona, Lemoore, and Kettleman City. The overall purpose is to ensure that children in migrant and seasonal farmworker families have access to comprehensive early childhood services that support school readiness and family well-being, delivered in ways that fit the realities of agricultural work and frequent mobility.
Funding is available at an annual level of $1,599,512, which is also the stated award ceiling, and the opportunity anticipates a single award. The funding instrument is a grant, and the program falls under the federal activity area of Income Security and Social Services. The associated CFDA number is 93.600, which is the long-standing catalog identifier for Head Start. In practical terms, the selected grantee would be responsible for administering the local MSHS program, using these federal funds to provide services to eligible children (typically infants, toddlers, and preschool-aged children in migrant or seasonal families, depending on local program design) and to engage and support their families through Head Start's required comprehensive service approach.
Eligibility for applicants is broad and includes many types of entities that might plausibly run an early childhood program at community scale. Eligible applicants listed in the announcement include county governments; 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 and Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (other than higher education institutions); for-profit organizations (other than small businesses); and small businesses. The description also emphasizes that local public or private nonprofit organizations, including community-based and faith-based organizations, as well as for-profit agencies within the community, are welcome to compete. This wide eligibility reflects the way Head Start grants are sometimes competed when a service area is open and the federal government is seeking the strongest local operator, regardless of organizational type, as long as the applicant can meet Head Start performance standards and federal grants management requirements.
The opportunity was created on September 18, 2018, with an original closing date of November 19, 2018. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date, which is a standard submission rule for federal discretionary grants. The funding opportunity number is HHS-2019-ACF-OHS-CM-R12-1446, which applicants would use to find the full notice, confirm submission instructions, and ensure they are applying under the correct competition.
Organizations interested in clarifying requirements or navigating the application process were directed to contact the OHS Operations Center by email at OHSTech@reviewops.org for additional information. In short, this competition offers roughly $1.6 million per year to operate Migrant and Seasonal Head Start programming in several specific Central California communities, with one expected grantee responsible for delivering the full set of Head Start-style comprehensive services to eligible migrant and seasonal families in that defined service area.Apply for HHS 2019 ACF OHS CM R12 1446
