The Federal Administration for Children and Families (ACF)—part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services—contracts with us to provide expert knowledge and technical assistance to Head Start early childhood programs.

The goals are:

• Increase the skills and knowledge of program providers.
• Ensure that programs meet all national and state requirements.
• Promote best practices for the highest quality of early education and care service and delivery.
• Help Head Start grantees increase the school readiness of young children in low-income families.

We also provide high quality administrative, management, and financial assistance to support the ACF-administered Head Start early childhood programs in New England.

Through our partnership with ACF, we’ve supported and strengthened over 100 community-based Head Start programs serving more than 30,000 children across New England.
