Details
Head Start (HS) is a comprehensive program that provides educational, nutritional, health, and family services to preschool children ages 3-5 years old and their families. HS is a federally-funded program FREE to incomeeligible families. Eligibility criteria may include family income, age of child and/or a child's special needs. The Head Start program offers center base and home base programs.
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.
