Lafourche Parish Head Start Lafourche Parish Head Start is a federally funded program that provides preschool services to Lafourche Parish children.

Lafourche Parish Head Start is more than just an educational system. It is a community service, a community outreach, a social service, a medical service, and an overall comprehensive program to meet the needs of the families we serve and to educate those families in fostering self-sufficiency. The child must be three years of age before entering the Head Start program. A common factor of the average Head Start child/family is limited or low income. Our program's main goal is to prepare children to enter kindergarten with the skills and abilities necessary to succeed in school including health and social services. Geographic Area
