About this opportunity

The Department of Health and Human Services' Administration for Children and Families, in conjunction with the Department of Education, is seeking applications from eligible states and territories for the FY 2024 Preschool Development Birth Through Five Renewal Grant. This grant aims to build upon the initial Preschool Development Grant Birth through Five (PDG B-5) activities, addressing the changing needs of children and families due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The grant focuses on strengthening the early childhood care and education (ECCE) workforce, enhancing quality, and expanding access to early childhood services, particularly in high-need communities. Applicants are encouraged to use a portion of grant funds for subgrants to ECE programs to expand and enhance services within their mixed delivery systems.

The total funding available is $85 million, with individual awards ranging from $500,000 to $11 million per year for a 36-month period of performance. The applications are due by July 31, 2024, and awards are expected to be made by September 16, 2024, with a start date of September 30, 2024.

Synopsis

The Office of Early Childhood Development within the Administration for Children and Families at the Department of Health and Human Services jointly with the Department of Education will be soliciting applications from eligible states and territories to carry out the renewal grant activities of the Preschool Development Grant Birth through Five (PDG B-5). The PDG B-5 Renewal Grant will fund states to build upon their initial grant activities, while considering the changing needs of children and families created by the COVID 19 Pandemic, and investing in strategies that will address those needs, supporting and strengthening the early childhood care and education (ECCE) workforce, enhancing quality, and expanding access to early childhood services for children, particularly those in high need communities. Recipients of PDG B-5 Renewal Grant funding are encouraged to use a certain portion of grant funds to award subgrants to ECE programs, to expand access to and enhance the quality of existing services or develop new programs that address the needs of low-income and disadvantaged young children and families in the mixed delivery system across the state.
