Details
Head Start is a federal early childhood education program. It promotes individual growth and personal development of preschool children, ages 3 and 4, by providing comprehensive educational, health, nutrition and social services to them. At least 90% of the children served are from "low income" families. Up to 10% of the children served may be from "over income" families. The income guidelines for Head Start are set each year by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, which funds the program.
