Ute Indian Tribe Head Start welcomes you to the Uintah & Ouray Reservation located in the beautiful Uintah Basin. The Ute Indian Tribe was one of the original grantees for Head Start starting its services in 1966. Over the years Ute's program has seen a lot of changes. It has progressed from 1 classroom in Fort Duchesne to 11 classrooms at 6 different sites. We also have the option of home based education. Their program currently serves 215 children. Over half of the children are from the Ute Tribe with the remainder coming from throughout the Uintah Basin area.

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.
