Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) Locator

The Office of Head Start (OHS) posts funding opportunity announcements (FOAs) to solicit applications for grant funds to specific service areas or a national competition.

OHS funds opportunities in individually defined service areas across the country where Head Start and Early Head Start funding becomes available. Interested applicants should select a state from the dropdown feature below to view the list of available service areas, their corresponding funding levels in the state, and grantee profiles and inventories if available. Applicants may email the OHS Operations Center at OHSTech@reviewops.org for additional information.
