Head Start (HS) and Early Head Start (EHS), serving two generations, supports the mental, social and emotional competence of children from birth to age five. In addition to education, HS/EHS provides children and their families with health, nutrition, and social-emotional education. Programs are responsive to each child and family’s ethnic, cultural and linguistic heritage, and focus on whole-child development in the context of the family and community. HS/EHS provides early education within a comprehensive service framework that is committed to the engagement of families in the development of their children. HS/EHS recognizes parents as the child’s first and most important teacher and as leaders in program governance.

“Community Services for Children is great for both parents and children. I get the peace of mind that she’s still learning something while I’m at work, she’s in a good place, she’s not getting into trouble, and she has other kids to play with. I honestly believe that my daughter is ready for kindergarten. She’ll come home, tell me everything about her numbers, alphabet, shapes, colors, animals, dinosaurs, and then all her little friends that she has made here. I’m thankful for the teachers that they have here, how patient they are with the children.” –Gregg
