The Early Head Start Program is a Federally funded program designed to serve income eligible families who are expecting a child and/or have children ages birth to three. Teachers meet weekly with families in their homes to promote positive family health and development. In addition, families attend socialization activities twice each month.

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.
