Abstract	This document is a guide to provide the foundation for developing local Head Start programs into strong communities for staff and families. Using workshop and coaching activities, the guide initiates a process of staff training and development designed to foster cooperation between families and staff. These activities encourage Head Start staff to: (1) examine the impact of their own beliefs and behaviors on the development of supportive relationships with each other and with Head Start families; (2) show support for each other and for Head Start families through recognizing and reinforcing individual and family strengths; (3) see themselves together with Head Start families as members of the community who work as a team in resource development; and (4) establish collaborative partnerships with each other, Head Start families, and resources in the broader community to address recurring concerns of families. Follow-up activities include opportunities tailored to the participant to continue building on skills learned in training and ways to identify new skills and knowledge needed to expand or complement those skills through opportunities in higher education, credentialing, and community educational programs.
