Each child enrolled in the Head Start and Early Head Start programs will receive health assessments and services to help with primary intervention and prevention methods to increase childhood, health, growth, and development.

We ensure children receive medical, dental, hearing, vision, and behavioral screenings.

 

One way we implement health and nutrition into their daily activities is by engaging all children in both indoor and outdoor physical activity.  Serve breakfast, lunch, and snacks that are healthy and nutritious.
