Early Head Start and Head Start programs provide family-centered services for low-income families at no cost. These programs are designed to promote the development of children and to enable parents to fulfill their roles as parents while moving toward self-sufficiency.

Providing services to pregnant women and children birth through 5, Head Start programs promote the physical, cognitive, social, and emotional development of infants and toddlers, and preschool-aged children through safe and developmentally enriching caregiving. Head Start programs also engage parents or other key family members in positive relationships, with a focus on family wellbeing. Parents participate in leadership roles, including having a say in program operations.
​
Families and children experiencing homelessness, and children in the foster care system are also eligible. Additionally, Head Start services are available to children with disabilities and other special needs.
