The federal government is offering a discretionary grant opportunity to select one or more organizations to operate Head Start and/or Early Head Start services for eligible children and families living in the City of East Orange, New Jersey. The funding is administered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) through the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), specifically the Office of Head Start (OHS). The goal of the competition is to identify a capable local provider (or providers) to deliver comprehensive early childhood and family support services consistent with Head Start and Early Head Start program requirements.

In practical terms, applicants are competing to become the grantee responsible for running the Head Start and/or Early Head Start program model in the specified service area, including program management, compliance, and direct service delivery for children and families who meet eligibility requirements.
The announcement makes up to $4,783,010 available per year to support program operations in East Orange. The listed award ceiling matches that annual amount, indicating the maximum expected yearly funding level tied to this particular service area.
