About this file
This is a program overview document for the Early Childhood Comprehensive Systems: Scaling Effective Early Childhood Systems Development (ECCS SEED) Program, posted on Grants.gov under HRSA-26-057. The program is administered by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), Maternal and Child Health Bureau, Division of Home Visiting and Early Childhood Systems. ECCS SEED improves access to high-quality, coordinated care for families from pregnancy through age 5 by strengthening early childhood systems, identifying family needs early (including mental health support, parenting education, and food and housing assistance), and connecting children and caregivers to appropriate services.
The program's core activities include establishing or expanding Centralized Intake and Referral Systems (CIRS) to assess family needs, implementing community-wide evidence-based early childhood models, providing state, tribal, or territorial early childhood systems leadership, and planning for long-term systems sustainability. Estimated total program funding is $7,000,000 with an award ceiling of $875,000 per recipient. Approximately 8 awards are anticipated. The project period runs five years from August 1, 2026 through July 31, 2031. Eligible applicants include states, tribes, territories, and eligible domestic entities with statewide or tribal reach highly encouraged. A limit of one award per state or jurisdiction applies, with a tribal exception. Inquiries should be directed to HomeVisiting@hrsa.gov.

The Early Childhood Comprehensive Systems: Scaling Effective Early Childhood Systems Development Program (ECCS SEED) improves access to high-quality, coordinated care for families from pregnancy through age 5 (P-5). The program strengthens early childhood systems by identifying family needs early– like mental health support, parenting education, and food and housing assistance–and connecting both children and caregivers to high-quality services. By supporting families during the earliest and most critical years of a child's development, ECCS SEED helps prevent chronic disease and supports lifelong health.
