Family Services

 Family Partnerships
 

Family Service Coordinators and other staff are available to help families with a wide variety of needs. We can provide referrals to many community resources or help directly. We provide education and support to promote positive mental health in adults and children. Families are encouraged to work with staff in assessing their strengths and needs, and developing a plan to achieve any goals they may have for themselves, their child, and/or family. Families come in all shapes and sizes.  Our goal is to work with each family to build upon strengths they already have and to assist them with any struggles their may be having, so that they are better able to focus energies on their children’s learning.
 

Family Service Coordinators are available to discuss these issues.

 Adult Education
 

Head Start recognizes that children learn by example. Education is a life long learning process. We encourage adults to take the opportunity to continue in the education process. Information is available on assistance to work with parents in improving their reading and math skills, completing the High School Equivalency Exam, better preparing themselves for the workforce, or increasing their employment and career options.  We can also help with ideas for how to work with a child at home to promote their school and reading readiness, and encourage them to make learning and reading important and fun parts of their lives.

We encourage parents to ask staff for ideas and resources.

 

As parents grow and develop, their child will too.

 

Parents are the best role models for their children.
