Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2019 ACF OCC YN 1544
The American Indian and Native Hawaiian Non-Profit Organization Child Care Grant (HHS-2019-ACF-OCC-YN-1544) is a discretionary federal grant offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), through the Office of Child Care (OCC). It makes up to $1,000,000 available in total funding, with OCC expecting to make a single award. The overall goal is straightforward: expand access to child care for American Indian or Native Hawaiian children who are not currently being served through other Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) formula-funded programs.
This opportunity is designed to fill service gaps rather than duplicate existing CCDF-funded coverage. Funded programs are meant to provide child care services to eligible children under age 13 who live with families meeting income and need criteria. Specifically, children must reside in a household with income at or below 85 percent of the state median income (or the tribal median income, for a family of the same size). In addition, the child must have a parent or parents who are working, participating in a job training program, or enrolled in an educational program, or the child must be receiving protective services or be in need of protective services. These requirements align with typical CCDF eligibility rules and emphasize supporting families who need child care to maintain employment, pursue education or training, or address safety and welfare concerns.
Eligibility to apply includes Native American tribal organizations that are not federally recognized tribal governments, and nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), along with other entities as allowed under the announcement’s eligibility clarifications. A key restriction is that an American Indian organization already receiving OCC funding directly from the federal government cannot receive an additional award under this announcement for the same service area. In other words, applicants must propose services that do not overlap with an existing federally funded OCC grant footprint.
The announcement also points out a related but separate funding opportunity specifically intended to support child care services delivered by a Native Hawaiian nonprofit organization (FOA HHS-2019-ACF-OCC-YN-1543). An entity may submit applications to both announcements, but even if both applications are strong, the applicant can receive an award under only one of the two FOAs. This is intended to prevent double funding and ensure that the limited resources support the broadest possible coverage.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity is categorized under Income Security and Social Services and is associated with CFDA number 93.575. The grant was posted on April 23, 2019, with an original application deadline of June 24, 2019, and electronic submissions due by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the closing date. Overall, the funding is aimed at creating or expanding child care availability for underserved American Indian and Native Hawaiian communities, prioritizing children and families who meet CCDF-style eligibility rules and who are currently outside the reach of other CCDF formula grantees.Apply for HHS 2019 ACF OCC YN 1544
