Head Start takes a comprehensive approach to meeting the needs of young children

Head Start takes a comprehensive approach to meeting the needs of young children. There are four major components to Head Start:

- Education: Providing a variety of learning experiences to help children grow intellectually, socially, and emotionally.

- Health: Providing health services such as immunizations, dental, medical, and mental health, and nutritional services, and early identification of health problems.

- Parent Involvement: Involving parents in the planning and implementation of activities. Parents serve on policy councils and committees that make administrative decisions; participate in classes and workshops on child development; and volunteer in the program.

- Social Services: Provide outreach to families to determine what services they need.

Enrollment is OPEN at our Head Start locations across Bergen County, Jersey City and Paterson NJ. To apply and learn more, head over to https://bit.ly/3e9Dtkw
