Nisqually Tribe Head Start is a comprehensive child development program which serves children 3½-to-5 years of age. Head Start is a child-focused program, and haves an overall goal of increasing the social competence of young children in low-income families. The Head Start program has a long tradition of delivering comprehensive and high quality services designed to foster healthy development in low-income children. Nisqually Tribe Head Start provides a range of individualized services in the areas of education and early childhood development, medical, dental, mental health, and nutrition and parent involvement.

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.
