About the company
Jumpstart For Young Children, Inc., a Boston-based tax-exempt nonprofit, receives federal grant funding as a prime recipient to recruit, train, and deploy AmeriCorps members delivering early literacy and social-emotional skill-building programs in preschool classrooms serving low-income communities, with 82% of recent awards as a prime grantee and 18% as a sub-recipient under state-level AmeriCorps grants.
Jumpstart operates exclusively in the federal grant space — no contract vehicles or IDIQs — and concentrates entirely on two federal grant programs. The Corporation for National and Community Service's AmeriCorps State and National program (CFDA 84.006) and the Department of Education's Innovative Approaches to Literacy program (CFDA 84.215) account for 100% of the vendor's recent award footprint across sixteen distinct awards (nine through CNCS's Office of Grants Management directly, seven through CNCS, and six through ED's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education). The largest single award is a $17.098 million three-year AmeriCorps State and National Project Grant from CNCS covering the 2022–23 program cycle with forward funding for 2023–24 and 2024–25, awarded September 1, 2022, with ultimate completion August 31, 2025. More recently, on June 1, 2026, the Department of Education awarded Jumpstart a $2.698 million grant under the Innovative Approaches to Literacy program running through June 1, 2029 to build on an accelerated workforce program pilot in Massachusetts.
As a sub-recipient, Jumpstart operates under state and local intermediaries. Recent sub-awards place Jumpstart in Connecticut (184 AmeriCorps members serving seven municipalities under the Office of Higher Education as prime grantee, awarded September 1, 2024), Missouri (165 AmeriCorps members in Kansas City and Columbia under the Department of Economic Development Missouri, September 1, 2024), and Massachusetts (440 AmeriCorps members across eleven municipalities under Massachusetts Service Alliance, Inc., August 26, 2024). Combined dollars obligated across the entire twenty-two-award footprint total $106.1 million since 2006. Activity is episodic — one award in 2022, one in 2023, three in 2024, and one in 2026 — with the portfolio concentrated in AmeriCorps grant continuations and renewals rather than steady-state contract work. All federal customer relationships are with CNCS and the Department of Education; no exposure to other agencies appears in the recent footprint.
