Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2024 ACF OHS CH R4 0142
The Head Start/Early Head Start Recipient grant opportunity (HHS 2024 ACF OHS CH R4 0142) is a discretionary federal grant run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), through the Office of Head Start (OHS). Its purpose is to fund organizations that will operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start programs for eligible children and families in specific, defined service areas within the state of South Carolina. The funding is intended to support comprehensive early childhood services, and awards are competed, meaning applicants must submit a full proposal and be selected through a competitive review process rather than receiving funds automatically.
This competition is structured around multiple local communities or service areas in South Carolina, each with its own geographic boundaries and associated funding level. OHS notes that the number of service areas listed is forecasted and could change before the official notice of funding opportunity is posted, so applicants are expected to check the official “Link to Additional Information” referenced in the opportunity materials for the most up-to-date list of available service areas and funding amounts. For questions or clarifications, prospective applicants can contact the OHS Operations Center by email at OHSgrants@koniag-gs.com.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of entities that could reasonably operate early childhood programming at community scale. Eligible applicants include state, county, and city or township governments; independent school districts; public and private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations both with and without IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding higher education institutions when applying under the nonprofit category); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; and small businesses. In practice, this means both traditional Head Start operators (like community action agencies and nonprofits) and a wide range of public-sector or private providers can apply, as long as they can meet Head Start program requirements and demonstrate the capacity to deliver services in the defined area.
From a funding and awards standpoint, the opportunity lists an award ceiling of $4,057,133 and anticipates making 2 awards. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is Income Security and Social Services under CFDA 93.600 (Head Start). The application record shows a creation date of October 12, 2023, with an original closing date of December 14, 2023. Applications must be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date indicated in the announcement. Applicants should still confirm the final deadline and any updated details in the posted notice, especially because service areas and other specifics may be revised prior to posting or in subsequent updates.
Overall, this opportunity is about selecting organizations to serve as the Head Start and/or Early Head Start recipient in particular South Carolina communities, with funding tied to those service areas. Applicants should focus on identifying which service area(s) they are applying for, reviewing the listed funding level for that area, and preparing a proposal that shows strong organizational capacity, compliant program design, and an ability to deliver the required services to eligible children and families within the specified geographic boundaries.Apply for HHS 2024 ACF OHS CH R4 0142
