We provide comprehensive services to infants and toddlers age birth to 3 years including education, health, nutrition, and family support. We offer full inclusion for infants and toddlers with special needs in a safe and nurturing environment. We work in partnership with families to individualize learning experiences for each child through responsive care giving and play based education. Children are encouraged and supported as they explore and investigate materials and the environment in order to learn about the world around them. Through extended learning in the domains of cognitive, social-emotional, physical, and language development, infants and toddlers gain skills and knowledge necessary for future academic success. We ensure children’s healthy growth and positive learning by promoting individual and group experiences in a safe environment, building secure and nurturing relationships, and working in partnership with families and the community.

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.
