DRS NOFOs Posted and Applications Due January 6, 2025

Today, two Notice of Funding Opportunities (NOFO) for Designation Renewal System (DRS) grant opportunities posted on grants.gov. Links to the announcements on grants.gov are below. Grant applications are due January 6, 2024.

In addition to accessing NOFOs on grants.gov, they are downloadable from the Office of Head Start (OHS) NOFO Locator. The OHS NOFO Locator also lists service areas and funding amounts included as part of the competition.

As forecasted, there is an approximately 9-week turnaround for grant applications that extends through winter holidays. Remember that grants.gov goes down for scheduled maintenance every month, and you will not be able to access grants.gov during an outage. There are two scheduled outages during the application timeline – November 16-18. 2024 and December 21-23. 2024.
