The impact of Head Start reaches far beyond the classroom.

For generations, Head Start has helped children begin school ready to learn while giving families opportunities to build toward their own goals. Today, Head Start alumni are educators, business owners, health professionals, public servants, parents, and community leaders.

During Head Start Awareness Month, we recognize Head Start’s lasting impact and uplift the many paths its children, families, and alumni have taken.
