Head Start is a comprehensive child development and family support program for income-eligible families. Children attend a center-based program four or five days a week, and families receive support through their relationship with the center's family service worker.

The program services families one or two years before the child enters public school.               

Services include:

• Transportation to and from the Center
• Health screenings
• Dental examinations and follow-up care
• Parenting programs
• Parent involvement in advisory and policy setting groups
• Nutritional education
• Social services
• Full-day, full-year child care (at some of our sites)
