Head Start & Early Head Start
Head Start and Early Head Start provide free early childhood education and family support services for eligible families. Children learn through engaging classroom experiences while families receive support that promotes healthy development and school readiness.
The Head Start and Early Head Start Programs
Head Start and Early Head Start provide comprehensive early childhood education and family support services designed to help children and families thrive.
Early Head Start serves expectant parents and children from 6 weeks to age 3, with a focus on health, social-emotional development, and early learning.
Head Start serves children ages 3–5 through classroom-based programs that prepare children for kindergarten and lifelong success.
Both programs partner closely with families to support each child’s development while helping parents reach their own goals.

Programs operate at AVANCE early childhood centers and partner sites throughout San Antonio and the Uvalde region.
