UNITED CHILDREN AND FAMILY HEAD START
Your family is our mission!
United Children and Family Head Start Board of Directors and Staff are dedicated to aiding income eligible families of diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds in Northeast Detroit to overcome education and economic deprivation by:
Providing comprehensive services to children 0-5
years of age;
Providing a complement of services to the family unit that includes health, nutrition, education, literacy, parent involvement, social services and disability services;
Providing career development opportunities for staff that will give them the confidence and competence to meet the needs of our families
We aim to strengthen the family unit by having parental participation in the educational process. Because a child’s educational success is based on more than just the school environment, we will encourage community involvement. We will meet these goals by enlisting a competent, caring staff who is sensitive to cultural differences and attuned to incorporating all the positive elements of the community to enhance the child’s development.
