Head Start is free for eligible families: federal rules do not allow programs to charge them a fee (45 CFR 1302.18). Early Head Start serves children under 3; Head Start preschool serves children from age 3 until they can start school.
- Families qualify with income at or below the federal poverty guidelines, or if they receive public assistance such as TANF.
- Children who are homeless or in foster care qualify regardless of income.
- To apply, contact the program; it checks eligibility and may keep a waiting list.
What a capacity of 200 means
Capacity is the most children the license allows at one time, not current enrollment or openings.
Massachusetts sets its own staff-to-child ratios by age; licensing in Massachusetts links to the state's rules.
