CATG Early Head Start is a program for prenatal mothers through children age 3. We are a home-based program in which Home Visitors in your village will help YOU to help your child with Developmental Stages, Educational and Health issues as they grow. We are federally funded to serve those in the Yukon Flats Region. Our program provides services to the villages of the Yukon Flats Region. Currently we are in Arctic Village, Fort Yukon and Venetie and plan to expand to all 9 villages as we increase our staff.

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.
