Details
Stafford Schools Early Head Start (EHS) is a federally funded program for 28 low-income families with infants and toddlers and pregnant women. Stafford Schools provides local assistance and this program provides teen parents with support to finish their high school education. The mission of the Early Head Start program is:
to promote healthy prenatal outcomes for pregnant women,
to enhance the development of very young children, and
to promote healthy family functioning.
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.
