Head Start

Head Start is a program that is funded by the federal government that provides comprehensive child development services. This provides preschool education, health services, dental and mental health screening and follow-up. It includes parent involvement training. This is also for 3 and 4 year old children who come from families with they meet the financial standards of the program. There are thirty-three programs that serve 120 counties in Kentucky. Head Start is a good program to consider if you feel that your young child is having communication problems or maybe they are picking up all that they need to be picking up. The program instills the child with early education information. They physically do activities and they sing and read stories and learn responsibility. Parent involvement is also important as well. Parents are one of the most important teachers that a child will have.
