Ohio Head Start is a nationally recognized school readiness program that offers comprehensive education, health, and social services to low-income, special needs, and at-risk children and their families. With a child-centered and family-focused approach, Head Start provides opportunities for early childhood development, dental and mental health care, nutrition, and parent engagement.
Investing in Head Start programs yields significant economic benefits, with a return rate of $7-$10 for every dollar spent. By reducing expenses in areas such as grade retention and special education services, Head Start contributes to higher earning potential and economic success in adulthood, ultimately reducing the need for welfare and criminal justice system funding.
