The Early Head Start program strives to provide the same type of programs and services that Head Start provides, but to expectant parents and families with infants and toddlers through age 3 rather than to older children. Early Head Start provides comprehensive education, medical and dental services, mental health services, nutrition, social services, full inclusion of young children with disabilities and parent involvement services to low-income children and their families.

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.
