Early Head Start

Early Head Start programs enhance physical, social, emotional, and intellectual development of infants and children, and assist pregnant mothers in accessing prenatal and postpartum care.

Early Head Start Programming

Early Learning Center offers both center-based or home-based services through Early Head Start programming. Early Head Start focuses on working with children from birth to age 3 and developing relationships with parents, including prenatal moms.

Our Family Educators work with parents on developing family goals and plans to develop the whole child through discovery, developmental milestones, and nutrition. We offer assistance by sharing our resources with all community human services agencies throughout Huntington County to enhance family goals and outcomes.

We strive to supply an enriching program to inspire your child to learn and discover new things. Research shows that in the first five years of life, a child develops 90% of his or her adult brain. All Early Head Start activities and curriculum are directed to the development of the child in those early years.
