St. Mary/Vermilion CAA Head Start Program has been in our community since 1967. The motto of the program is "Touching Children Reaching Families". The program staff works with both the children and their parents to provide a variety of educational and enrichment activities. Children receive medical and dental care, nutritious meals and safe, stimulating play at Head Start. There is no charge to parents of children in Head Start for any of these services. There are no enrollment or registration fees.

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.
