At Head Start, families and community members play an important role in helping children learn and grow. When parents get involved, children see that school and home are working together—and that builds confidence, pride, and lifelong success. Your time, talents, and participation show children that their education matters.
There are many ways to get involved, whether you have a little time or a lot:
Help in the classroom by reading stories, assisting with activities, or sharing a special skill
Attend parent meetings, workshops, or family events
Serve on Policy Council or parent committees to help guide program decisions
Prepare materials or simple projects at home
Support special events or program activities throughout the year
How You Can Make a Difference
Every hour you volunteer or donate materials is given a dollar value and helps us meet federal requirements.
You can donate in many ways, such as:
Volunteering in classrooms or during events
Completing home activities with your child
Sharing skills or talents, like storytelling, art, or cultural traditions
Donating materials the program can safely use
Serving on committees like Policy Council or parent groups
These contributions help strengthen the program and demonstrate that our community is invested in keeping Head Start strong.
