About the company
Washington State Community College District 17, doing business as Community Colleges of Spokane, is a state-controlled institution of higher learning based in Spokane, Washington, that operates as a federal grant recipient delivering workforce development, early childhood education, and nutritional support services to federal agencies. The organization operates as a prime grant recipient (61% of recent awards) and as a sub-recipient on federal education and nutrition programs (39% of awards), with no contracting footprint — all federal activity flows through grant mechanisms rather than competitive procurement.
Community Colleges of Spokane's federal footprint centers on three distinct capability areas. The organization holds a $16.188 million five-year Head Start and Early Head Start project grant from the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families, awarded September 1, 2026, and running through August 31, 2031 (CFDA 93.600). The grant funds cognitive, physical, behavioral, and social-emotional development services for 3- and 4-year-old children in Head Start Preschool programs and infants, toddlers, and pregnant women through Early Head Start programs, delivered locally within the Spokane service area. The organization also operates as a sub-recipient on recurring federal programs: adult basic education services funded through the Washington State Board for Community and Technical Colleges; child nutrition program reimbursement and administrative support flowing from the Superintendent of Public Instruction (ten documented sub-awards spanning 2023 through 2024); and natural resource career pathway enhancement work also sub-awarded through the Washington State Board for Community and Technical Colleges as of October 2024.
Customer concentration reflects education and nutrition agency preference. The top five funding sources account for 77% of awards by count: the Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service (18 awards), the Department of Education Office of Postsecondary Education (12 awards), the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families (5 awards), the Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service's Washington Office Rural Business Cooperative Services (4 awards), and a duplicate HHS Administration for Children and Families line (4 awards). The organization has served eleven distinct federal agencies across the portfolio. Activity volume has fluctuated — four awards in 2021, six in 2023, thirteen in 2024, then dropping to two each in 2025 and 2026 — reflecting the five-year grant cycle pattern typical of Head Start renewals and subordinate nutrition and workforce program flows.
