The overall goal of the Cheyenne& Arapaho Head Start Program is to bring about a greater degree of social competence in preschool age children.Our goal is to enable children to accomplish the goals of today and prepare for the challenges of tomorrow.This will be achieved through a safe and secure learning environment provided by Head Start staff, families, tribal government and community support.Head Start is a national program that promotes school readiness by enhancing the social and cognitive development of children through the provision of educational, health, nutritional, social and other services to enrolled children and families.
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.
