Summary

The Administration for Children and Families wants to keep using the Head Start grant application form for three more years but with fewer hoops to jump through. They’re cutting down on paperwork and making it easier for applicants to explain their programs and budgets. This means less hassle and more time to focus on helping kids, with no extra costs or delays.

Less Paperwork for Head Start Grants

If you apply for Head Start grants, the Administration for Children and Families is requesting a 3-year extension of the grant application (OMB #0970-0207, expiration June 30, 2025). The application will require fewer documents for both baseline and continuation applications and will shorten the program and budget justification narratives, reducing paperwork and burden for grant recipients with no extra costs or delays.
