Details
Head Start, a comprehensive child development program for low-income families and children ages 3 and 4, is offered at each college. The program prepares children for kindergarten and grade school by focusing on their social and cognitive development and providing educational, health, nutritional, social and other services to them and their families. We encourage parents to take part in their children’s education and help them with their own educational and employment goals.
