Details:
Columbia Sullivan Head Start serves preschool children between the ages of 3 and 5 years old throughout Columbia and Sullivan counties. Head Start is a federal program that promotes the school readiness of children ages 3 to 5 from low-income families by enhancing their cognitive, social and emotional development. Children from families whose income fall within the Department of Health and Human Services poverty guidelines are given first priority for enrollment. There is no charge for families that are accepted into the Head Start Program. Head Start provides comprehensive services to enrolled children and their families that include health, nutrition, mental health, parent involvement, and social services. Head Start also provides for the special needs of children with disabilities and severe disabilities. Head Start emphasizes the role of parents as their child's first and most important teacher. Parents are encouraged to participate in the governing body of Head Start (Policy Council), in the classroom, and in the many special functions that are a part of the program. Head Start can help working parents obtain additional child care services when needed.
