Our staff recognizes that the best way to prepare a child for future success is to engage in a collaborative partnership with the family. We believe that by providing support to families and linking them with available resources within their community, parents will be better prepared to be advocates for their children.

It is the role of the Head Start Family Advocates to assist families in obtaining the services they desire. This assistance is provided either directly or through referrals to other agencies in the community. The following are examples of some of the service that are available to our families:

  • Assistance with Food
  • Child Health Insurance
  • Education Planning
  • Housing
  • Medical and Dental Providers
  • Prenatal Care
  • Substance Abuse Counseling
  • Counseling
  • Domestic Violence Issues
  • Employment Skills
