SNAP recipients are now eligible for Head Start and Early Head Start. The Office of Head Start took action today to immediately expand Head Start Categorical Eligibility for Families Eligible for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). For the purposes of Head Start eligibility determination, the Office of Head Start (OHS) will expand its interpretation of “public assistance,” as used in the Head Start statute, to include SNAP.
Thank you to Head Start, National Head Start Association and everyone who worked hard to accomplish this.
