Early Head Start is…a unique opportunity to provide comprehensive services to expectant parents and families with infants and toddlers. Because of their vulnerabilities, very young children and their families require services of the highest quality. Early Head Start must meet the federal income guidelines just as Head Start; thus serving low-income families. The major difference in service provision of Early Head Start and Head Start is that Early Head Start focuses on the relationship between parent and child; whereas Head Start works with children to provide a consistent environment where children can continue to meet developmental milestones, develop literacy skills, and excel in school readiness activities
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.
