Head Start/Early Head Start

The Head Start program was created in 1965, and ICAP has provided Head Start services since that time. Each enrolled child and his/her family receive an array of education, health, social and nutrition services. Parental engagement is strongly encouraged. Services are provided in centers and in cooperative programs with several school districts. The overall purpose of the program is to serve young children from low-income families and prepare them to succeed in school. Head Start programs promote children's development through services that support early learning, health, and family well-being.
