Details
The ACRDC Head Start Program is a free comprehensive child development program that serves income eligible families with children, prenatal to five years old. We serve children of all abilities.Our program is child-focused, with the overall goal of increasing the social and academic competency of young children in low-income families. Head Start services are family centered and community-based. We offer family members opportunities and support for growth and change, believing that people can identify their own strengths, needs, and interests and are capable of finding solutions. The Head Start Program offers both center and home based programming.
Who is Eligible?
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.
