Head Start Families: Your Voice Matters. ❤️

Proposed federal changes could affect how Head Start programs operate and provide services to children and families.

On August 7, 2026, the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) released a proposed rule addressing areas including staffing, family services, enrollment and attendance, health and safety, teaching practices, and program operations.

Find more information on how that all this impact Head Start here: Frequently Asked Questions: 2026 Head Start NPRM (ffyf.org) https://www.ffyf.org/2026/08/19/faq-2026-head-start-nprm/

No final decision has been made. The federal government is currently accepting public comments through October 6, 2026.

If you are a current or former Head Start family, your experience and voice matters. You can share what Head Start has meant to your family, how the program has supported you, and how proposed changes could affect your family or community.

Public comment deadline: October 6, 2026

Your voice and your experience can help inform the conversation about the future of Head Start.

School mornings can get busy fast! 🎒

Creating a simple routine can make getting out the door a little easier for the whole family. Try:

🎒 Keeping backpacks and jackets in the same spot each day
👕 Picking out clothes the night before
🥪 Packing lunches or snacks ahead of time
📄 Checking backpacks for papers that need to be signed
⏰ Following the same order each morning — get dressed, eat breakfast, brush teeth, grab your things and go!

Simple, predictable routines can also help young children practice independence and know what to expect each day. 💚

Did you know newborns get a special health check? 👶It's called newborn screening, and September is Newborn Screening Awareness Month! It's a quick test that checks for serious but treatable conditions. Catching things early is a big deal; it leads to faster treatment and better health outcomes for babies.

Build a Better Plate!

Healthy eating doesn’t have to be complicated 👇

✔️ Fill half your plate with fruits & veggies
✔️ Choose whole grains when you can
✔️ Add healthy protein like beans, eggs, or chicken
✔️ Drink water instead of sugary drinks
✔️ Use healthy oils in your meals

And don’t forget - kids need time to play and be active every day!

Small changes = big impact for growing families
