About This Organization

The Early Head Start program provides quality childcare, family services, and home visitation to 120 children and pregnant women in Spartanburg County. Who Is Eligible? In FY 1995, the Early Head Start (EHS) program was established to serve low-income pregnant women and families with infants and toddlers from birth to three years of age in recognition of the mounting evidence that the earliest years matter a great deal to children's growth and development.

Who is Eligible?

Head Start generally serves children ages 3 to 5 who meet local eligibility requirements. 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.
