GRECS Head Start / Early Head Start

BREAKING: The proposed FY2026 budget from the White House would completely eliminate funding for Head Start.

We are calling on Congress to reject any proposal to defund Head Start. Lawmakers – many of whom have long shown support for the program – must act immediately to protect it.

Here’s how we can help protect Head Start:

✅Contact your Member of Congress: https://www.ffyf.org/take-action/
✅Tag your lawmaker in a social media post: https://www.ffyf.org/actions/2025/protect-head-start-post-on-x/
✅Share this toolkit with your network: https://www.ffyf.org/toolkit-head-start/

Join us in calling on Congress to protect Head Start!
