Details
Early Head Start is a government funded program offering free child care from 7:30am to 1:30pm to families who qualify. Wraparound care is offered for a fee from 1:30pm, until 6:00pm. Parents interested in our Early Head Start program can call Ms. Patterson or Ms. Lopez in our Family Services department at 772-545-0808. Those who need assistance with fees after 1:30pm can apply at the Early Learning Coalition of Indian River, Martin and Okeechobee Counties. We will explain and assist you with this process.
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.
