Grant Description

The Administration for Children and Families solicits applications from local public or private non-profit organizations, including faith-based organizations or local for-profit organizations, that wish to compete for funds that are available to provide Early Head Start services to infants, toddlers and their families residing in St. Louis City, Missouri. The intent of this announcement is to provide for the continuation of services as previously provided by the former grantee, South Side Day Nursery. Funds in the amount of $754,971 annually will be available to provide Early Head Start program services to eligible infants, toddlers and their families. However, it is up to each applicant to propose what it believes to be the maximum number of infants, toddlers and their families that it can serve in a high quality Early Head Start program with the total funding. The former grantee was funded for a total enrollment of 64 infants, toddlers and their families. Interested applicants should call the ACYF Operations Center at (866) 796-1591 to receive pre-application materials and additional information. ACF welcomes public comments from parents and area residents in the service area under this announcement. The intent of the public comment is not to solicit support for a specific applicant but to inform ACF about the needs of the service area in general. Comments should be sent to the ACYF Operations Center. Eligibility is limited to local public or private non-profit organizations, including faith-based organizations or local for-profit organizations in the community, that can provide Early Head Start services to infants, toddlers and their families residing in St. Louis City, Missouri.
