The Early Head Start program serves pregnant women, parents, and children under the age of three from low-income families. Catholic Charities Early Head Start of Carroll County provides educational opportunities for children to help them develop socially, emotionally, physically and intellectually. The staff help children develop skills that are appropriate for their ages and those that will help them get along with others and succeed in the world around them.

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.
