In contrast to Head Start being Rooftop’s oldest running program, Early Head Start is Rooftop of Virginia’s newest early education program. Early Head Start serves children ages 6 weeks to 3 years, as well as pregnant mothers. The Early Head Start centers have the ability to cater to young infants as well as older toddlers while still maintaining the standard of excelency that our Head Start program is known for. In addition to the traditional classroom setting, there is also an Early Head Start Home Based option. Early Head Start’s mission is to promote healthy outcomes for pregnant women, to enhance the development of very young children, and to promote healthy family functioning.
For more information contact Jeanette Griffith, Early Head Start Coordinator, by phone at 276-236-7131, extension 241 or by email at, jgriffith@rooftopofvirginia.com.
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.
