Current and former Head Start Parents and Caregivers, WE NEED YOU!
In the link below is a letter asking President Biden to ensure that Head Start remains strong!
"This letter, on behalf of Head Start and Early Head Start parents and caregivers, asks our country's leaders to continue the national commitment to providing all children the foundation they need to thrive, regardless of their circumstances at birth, by reconsidering the impact of the proposed new Head Start rule and prioritizing:
-Making sure any new requirements are fully paid for, and do not result in reducing the number of children and families served;
-Keeping children safe and healthy utilizing proven practices, not arbitrary federal rules; and
-Recognizing the unique cultures, traditions, and preferences of communities and continuing to provide Head Start programs the local autonomy to meet individual community needs."
Signing this letter would be a huge benefit to our own local communities that we serve. We appreciate your time and most of all YOUR VOICE!
