The UCHRA Van Buren County Head Start is a system of early childhood development programs serving three to five year old children from lower income families in our community. Head Start should not be confused with day care. It is so much more! Head Start is an educational and nurturing program which also addresses the emotional and physical needs of each child enrolled. Head Start recognizes that parents are the childs first and most important teachers. Therefore, parents are important partners involved in the activities of each Head Start center, and training programs for adults are included in the services. Ten percent of Head Starts enrollment is reserved for children with disabilities. Transportation, medical, dental, nutritional and mental health services are provided for all children.
