Details
Head Start, a mainstay of the agency, has been in operation since the creation of NEICAC in July of 1965. Seventeen Head Start and Child Development classrooms are located in all 7 counties. Iowa Child Development at-risk grants fund the four Child Development classrooms, providing services modeled after the Head Start program. Combined with State of Iowa Wrap-Around Grants, many of the classrooms provide extended daily hours, 6 AM to 6 PM, to assist these families with working members or those needing to fulfill schooling and training obligations.
