Community Action Head Start Program
Head Start is one of the original War on Poverty programs initiated by President Lyndon B. Johnson. It provides low-income preschoolers and preschoolers with disabilities with classroom instruction, medical screenings and follow-up, educational, recreational, and social activities, and nutritious meals.
All of these activities help the child attain the required skills for entrance into kindergarten. Parental involvement is a major component of the program and parents are encouraged to volunteer in the classroom, and take part in activities and workshops. Student transportation is available to most sites.
