The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), through the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) and its Office of Head Start (OHS), released a discretionary grant competition to select one or more organizations to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start services in Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania. The purpose of the funding is to support comprehensive early childhood programming for eligible infants, toddlers, and preschool-aged children, along with services for their families, consistent with the Head Start and Early Head Start program model (including education and school readiness, health, mental health, nutrition, and family support components).
This opportunity is identified as "Head Start and/or Early Head Start Grantee -- Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania" with Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2019-ACF-OHS-CH-R03-1407. The program falls under the Income Security and Social Services funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.600 (Head Start). Awards are made as grants, and the announcement anticipates making up to two awards, meaning OHS may select one or two successful applicants to cover the service area and funded enrollment needs for Philadelphia County.
The total amount available is stated as $6,126,700 annually, which is also listed as the award ceiling. In practical terms, that figure represents the approximate annual federal funding expected to support Head Start and/or Early Head Start operations for the defined service area, including staffing, program services, facilities-related costs as allowable, and required program infrastructure. Applicants are expected to demonstrate the capacity to deliver high-quality services at scale, manage federal grant compliance requirements, and coordinate effectively with community partners and existing early childhood systems in the county.
A wide range of applicants are eligible to apply. Eligible entities 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; nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (other than higher education institutions); for-profit organizations (including those 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 is intended to ensure that any organization with the operational experience and infrastructure to meet Head Start performance expectations can propose to serve children and families in the county.
