The Head Start / Early Head Start Program of Clinch-Powell Educational Cooperative (CPEC) is the premier provider of services to children birth through preschool age in the four-county area of Appalachian East Tennessee. We believe that development begins in the earliest moments of life and we recognize that, as parents, you are the first and most important teacher of your child. Together, we can nurture the social and cognitive skills to prepare him/her for success in the kindergarten and in life.

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
