How can I get involved?

Parents

Opportunities abound for parents to take on leadership roles within the Head Start organization. Parents also benefit from the resources and guidance each program provides to Head Start families, enhancing parenting skills, career building and community connections.

Teachers and other staff members

Teachers and other staff members find Head Start a rewarding career opportunity in which they can make a real contribution to the future of children. They also enjoy the collegial and nurturing atmosphere Head Start programs provide. Positions include teachers and teacher aides, family services, program administrators and coordinators, food service workers and bus drivers.

Volunteers

Volunteers are also an integral part of the Head Start team. Volunteers help in the classroom, the office, the resource center, the kitchen, and on field trips.

Grandparents

Grandparents are a wonderful resource for Head Start children, and many volunteer in theses capacities, using the opportunity to help and to establish a stronger bond with their grandchildren.

Community Partnerships

Head Start is always looking for community partners. Collaborative partnerships are being sought with businesses, organizations, professional service providers and other agencies whose involvement would enhance service to children and families.
