Currently Head Start of Washington County provides services to 485 pregnant women, children age 0-5, and their families, operating both Head Start and Early Head Start programs. 90% of the families we serve are living below the poverty line and have demonstrated a high level of need. Of the 10% who are not income eligible, most demonstrate another need such as a child with a diagnosed disability.

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.
