Appellate Division
| Subject: The Human Development Corporation of Metropolitan
St. Louis |
Date: 1999 September 30 |
Docket No. A-99-9
Decision No. 1703
The Human Development Corporation of
Metropolitan St. Louis (HDC) appealed the November 12, 1998 decision by the
Administration for Children and Families (ACF) terminating HDC's Head Start
grant pursuant to 45 C.F.R. § 1303.14. ACF's decision was based on the results
of an April 1997 On-Site Program Review (OSPR) and a June 1998 follow-up OSPR.
ACF determined that these reviews established three grounds for termination:
failure to comply with eligibility requirements and limitations on enrollment
(section 1303.14(b)(5)); failure to comply with fiscal or program reporting
requirements (section 1303.14(b)(3)); and failure to comply with requirements of
the Head Start Act (section 1303.14(b)(7)), specifically, failure to comply with
requirements for services to children with disabilities and for a community
needs assessment. More>>
