Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2024 ACF OHS CH R2 0090
The Head Start/Early Head Start Recipient -- Communities in Puerto Rico opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number: HHS 2024 ACF OHS CH R2 0090) is a discretionary federal grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Head Start (OHS). The program purpose is to fund organizations that can deliver Head Start and/or Early Head Start services to eligible children and families in Puerto Rico. These services generally focus on comprehensive early childhood education, health, mental health, nutrition, and family support, with an emphasis on serving low-income families and promoting school readiness for young children, including infants and toddlers through Early Head Start.
Funding is being made available across multiple Puerto Rico communities that are divided into defined service areas. Each service area has its own projected funding level and expectations, and the list of areas is not static. The announcement notes that the number of forecasted service areas is a projection and may change before the formal Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is officially posted. Because of that, applicants are expected to consult the link provided in the opportunity materials for the most current and detailed list of available service areas, associated funding amounts, and any updates that OHS posts as the competition develops.
A wide range of applicant types are eligible to apply, reflecting the program goal of attracting strong local operators with the capacity to run early childhood services at scale. 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 (as long as they are not institutions of higher education in those categories); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; and small businesses. The funding instrument is a grant, the funding activity category is Income Security and Social Services, and the CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number is 93.600.
The forecast indicates an expected 15 awards, with an award ceiling listed at $64,787,206. The narrative also states the forecast was modified to update key planning details, including the estimated posting date, estimated application due date, estimated total funding amount, and the award ceiling. Applicants should pay close attention to the final posted NOFO for the definitive amounts, final service area lineup, eligibility specifics tied to each area, and the evaluation criteria that will be used to score proposals.
Key timing information included in the source data lists an original closing date of December 14, 2023, and it emphasizes that electronic applications must be submitted by 11:59 pm Eastern Standard Time on the application due date. Since the forecast explicitly says dates were updated, prospective applicants should treat the published deadlines as subject to revision until the final NOFO is posted and should plan to verify the current due date directly from the official posting.
For questions or additional clarification while preparing to apply, applicants are directed to contact the OHS Operations Center by email at OHSgrants@koniag-gs.com. This is also a practical route for confirming service area details, competition updates, and application logistics when information changes between the forecast stage and the final funding announcement.Apply for HHS 2024 ACF OHS CH R2 0090
