Community Action of Southeast Iowa Head Start and Early Head Start programs provide center based Head Start/Early Head Start services for eligible families in Des Moines, Henry, Louisa, and Lee counties in Southeast Iowa. Children are served through two program options in Head Start – part day and full day programs. Full day programs are for parents working, in school or in training. All Early Head Start programs are full day programs for parents working, in school or in training. Part day children are transported to and from school.

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.
