Does our LEAs Head Start program disqualify us as a novice applicant for the purpose of the Pre-Application Competitive Priority?
Yes. To qualify as a “novice applicant”, an applicant cannot have received an active discretionary (competitive) grant directly from the Federal Government within the last 5 years. Generally, current Head Start programs are considered to have received active discretionary grants from the Federal Government, because they originally applied directly to and received their Head Starts funds competitively from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and that process characterizes those grants for their entire period.
