Early Head Start


     Early Head Start programs seek to build a foundation for a child’s developmental competence and school readiness during the earliest years of childhood. The program promotes healthy prenatal outcomes, enhances the development of infants and toddlers, and supports healthy family functioning. Families may participate in a home visiting program or utilize infant-toddler childcare where available.

Program is funded by the Administration for Children and Families
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
