Abstract | This research brief draws upon the fall 2019 data from the Head Start Family and Child Experiences Survey (FACES) 2019. FACES provides information at the national level about Head Start programs, centers, and classrooms as well as the children and families that Head Start serves. Head Start is a national program that helps young children from families with low incomes get ready to succeed in school. It does this by working to promote early learning, health, and family well-being. Head Start connects families with medical, dental, and mental health services to ensure that their children are receiving the services they need to develop well. Head Start not only involves parents in their children's learning and development but also supports parents' own goals, such as stable housing, continuing education, and financial security (Administration for Children and Families 2020). Head Start operates by providing grants to local public and private, nonprofit and for-profit agencies that deliver comprehensive child development services to economically disadvantaged children and their families.
