CHAPTER XIII--OFFICE OF HUMAN DEVELOPMENT SERVICES, DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH 

                           AND HUMAN SERVICES

 

PART 1302_POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR SELECTION, INITIAL FUNDING, AND 

 

                            Subpart A_General

 

Sec.  1302.1  Purpose and scope.





    The purpose of this part is to set forth policies and procedures for 

the selection, initial funding and refunding of Head Start grantees and 

for the selection of replacement grantees in the event of the voluntary 

or involuntary termination, or denial of refunding, of Head Start 

programs. It particularly provides for consideration of the need for 

selection of a replacement grantee where the continuing eligibility 

(legal status) and fiscal capability (financial viability) of a grantee 

to operate a Head Start program is cast in doubt by the cessation of 

funding under section 519 of the Act or by the occurrence of some other 

major change. It is intended that Head Start programs be administered 

effectively and responsibly; that applicants to administer programs 

receive fair and equitable consideration; and that the legal rights of 

current Head Start grantees be fully protected.
