Details
Early Head Start helps economically disadvantaged children from birth to 3 years old develop their educational and social skills. Teachers involve family members in the instruction and other center-based activities to help foster a lifetime of commitment to quality education. Through this early socialization and educational experience, children who attend Early Head Start are more likely to overcome learning disabilities often exacerbated by the effects of hunger, poverty, or environment. Through Early Head Start's comprehensive parent involvement program, parents participate in the decision-making, volunteer in the classroom and develop parent-sponsored activities and training.
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.
