Early childhood education is the key to the betterment of society - and great futures begin with a Head Start!

Head Start and Early Head Start are high-quality early childhood education programs for children birth to 5 years old, offered at no cost to qualifying families.  Our goal is to help children, from disadvantaged households, gain a love of learning that prepares them for success in kindergarten and beyond, promote healthy development, and strengthen families with concrete resources - so every child has the skills they need to thrive to their full potential.

​

Education: Children’s readiness for school and beyond is fostered through individualized learning experiences. Children progress in social skills and emotional well-being, along with language and literacy learning, and concept development

​

Health: All children receive health and development screenings and nutritious meals. Programs connect families with medical, dental, and mental health services to ensure that children are receiving the services they need.

​

Family Support: Parents and families are supported in achieving their own goals, such as strong parent-child relationships, housing stability, continued education, and financial security. 

​

Equity & Inclusion: We embrace diversity and welcome children and families of all backgrounds and abilities including those with special needs. Our staff are fluent in English, Spanish, and Creole.
