This grant opportunity, titled "Head Start and/or Early Head Start Grantee -- Skagit, Island, and San Juan Counties, Washington" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2019-ACF-OHS-CH-R10-1441), is a discretionary federal grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Head Start (OHS). The purpose is to select one or more organizations to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start services for eligible children and families living in Skagit, Island, and San Juan Counties in Washington State. In plain terms, the federal government is looking for a local provider (or providers) with the capacity to run comprehensive early childhood programs that meet Head Start Performance Standards, including child development, health, family support, and related services.

Funding is available in the amount of $5,224,368 per year, listed as the annual award ceiling for this opportunity. The announcement anticipates up to two awards, meaning ACF may fund as many as two separate grantees depending on how services are proposed and how awards are structured. The funds are intended specifically to deliver Head Start and/or Early Head Start program services, which generally include early learning and school readiness supports, health and developmental screenings, nutrition services, family engagement and support services, and coordination with community partners. The geographic service area is fixed (Skagit, Island, and San Juan Counties), so applicants are expected to demonstrate how they will reach and serve eligible children and families across those counties, including any rural or hard-to-reach communities.

A wide range of applicant types are eligible to apply. 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; nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; and small businesses. The announcement also explicitly notes that public or private nonprofits, including community-based and faith-based organizations, as well as for-profit organizations, may compete. This broad eligibility signals that ACF is primarily focused on selecting an entity with strong programmatic, fiscal, and compliance capacity to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start effectively in the designated region.

Key administrative details include that the opportunity falls under the Income Security and Social Services funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.600 (Head Start). The posting lists a creation date of September 18, 2018, with an original closing date of November 19, 2018.
