About the company

United Children's Services Inc., a Vermont-based tax-exempt nonprofit, operates as a federal grant sub-recipient (97% of recent awards) delivering early childhood education, family support services, and child nutrition programs under Head Start and Child and Adult Food Program funding from the Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Agriculture.

The organization holds a single prime federal grant: a $6.39 million Project Grant from the HHS Office of Head Start under the Head Start program (CFDA 93.600) awarded January 1, 2026, running through December 31, 2030. This five-year award funds comprehensive early childhood education and family support services for low-income children and families in Vermont, including educational instruction, health and nutritional support, social-emotional development programming, and family engagement initiatives. United Children's Services is required to provide a 20 percent non-federal match and will be measured against federal performance standards related to school readiness outcomes, health and family well-being metrics, and compliance with applicable federal requirements.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward nutrition and family-support funding streams. The Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service accounts for 24 of 29 total awards; the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families accounts for the remaining 5 awards (including the Head Start prime and sub-awards for Strengthening Families programming). All sub-award activity flows through the Vermont State Agency of Education (Child and Adult Food Program sub-awards spanning 2023–2025) and the Vermont Agency of Human Services (Strengthening Families and Special Accommodation Grant sub-awards in 2024–2025). Awards per year increased from 4 in 2023 to 12 in 2024 and 12 in 2025, with the Head Start prime grant representing the most recent and largest single award. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $7.1 million, reflecting United Children's Services' positioning as a regional sub-recipient and service operator rather than a prime vendor in the federal grant ecosystem.
