Educare is a research based program with a foundation in the best of early childhood practices that ensure school readiness of children most at risk for school failure. It is in a specially designed place that nurtures early learning and sends a clear message that we must invest in early childhood education because children are born learning. It is an innovative partnership between private philanthropists, Head Start/Early Head Start, Tulsa Public School officials and community partners dedicated to narrowing the achievement gap for children in their communities. Everyone works together on this compelling platform to raise awareness and drive change among policymakers, business leaders and early childhood providers of the vital importance of learning during a child’s first five years of life on long term success.

Children who are 3 to 5 years old are eligible for Head Start services. Pregnant women and children from birth to 3 years of age are eligible for Early Head Start services. Children and families who are homeless, in foster care, or receive TANF or SSI are also eligible for services. Eligibility is determined by Head Start program staff and some families may be eligible for services if they are determined to be at or below the federal poverty level. Some grantees enroll a percentage of children from families with incomes above the Poverty Guidelines as well.

Families are encouraged to apply.
