Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2023 ACF OHS CH R5 0184
This funding opportunity, titled "Head Start/Early Head Start Recipient -- Communities in the state of Wisconsin" (Funding Opportunity Number: HHS 2023 ACF OHS CH R5 0184), is a discretionary 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 purpose is to award federal grant funding to an organization that will operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start programs for eligible children and families in a specifically defined service area within Wisconsin. In practical terms, the award supports direct early childhood services that promote school readiness, healthy development, and family well-being for low-income infants, toddlers, and preschool-aged children, using the Head Start program model and performance expectations.
The competition is open to a wide range of applicant types, reflecting how Head Start services are often delivered through local community infrastructure. Eligible applicants include public entities (such as state, county, and city or township governments; independent school districts; and public housing authorities), tribal governments that are federally recognized, public and private institutions of higher education, and private organizations. Private entities may include nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (including community-based and faith-based organizations), as well as for-profit organizations and small businesses. This broad eligibility means applicants can come from multiple sectors as long as they can demonstrate the capacity to meet Head Start and/or Early Head Start requirements and successfully serve the targeted community.
Funding is tied to one individually defined service area in Wisconsin, rather than being a statewide open allocation. Applicants are expected to review the "Link to Additional Information" referenced in the announcement to see which service area is available for competition and to confirm the associated funding level for that area. The notice indicates an award ceiling of $3,456,956 and anticipates making about 2 awards, suggesting that funding may support more than one service area or program configuration under the overall announcement structure, but the Wisconsin component described is focused on a single defined service area that applicants must target precisely.
The opportunity uses the grant funding instrument type and falls under the federal activity category of Income Security and Social Services, with CFDA/Assistance Listing number 93.600 (Head Start). The announcement was created on November 10, 2022, with an original application closing date of January 24, 2023. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on the due date, which is a common federal deadline format and means applicants need to plan for time zone differences and submission-system processing time.
For prospective applicants needing clarification about the service area, funding levels, or competition logistics, the announcement provides a direct contact: the OHS Operations Center at OHSgrants@koniag-gs.com. In addition, the notice includes an important operational warning related to federal registration and eligibility to apply: SAM.gov entity validation delays. Because SAM.gov can take time to validate an entity's legal business name and address, and delays were specifically flagged as significant due to high demand, applicants were advised to start SAM registration or validation actions early to avoid last-minute issues that could block submission. The notice points to a SAM.gov support resource page for guidance on the entity validation process.Apply for HHS 2023 ACF OHS CH R5 0184
