Rockcastle County has officially joined our celebration of early childhood education! Rockcastle County Judge Executive Howell Holbrook Jr. has signed a proclamation recognizing October 2026 as Head Start Awareness Month.
This proclamation honors the incredible dedication of our local staff and highlights the enduring impact of Head Start and Early Head Start across Southeastern Kentuckyโproviding children with vital early learning, health, nutrition, and whole-family support services that break the cycle of poverty and lay the foundation for lifelong success.
On behalf of KCEOC Community Action Partnership, we extend our sincere gratitude to Judge Executive Howell Holbrook Jr. and the entire Rockcastle County community for their leadership, partnership, and steadfast support of our children and families.
When our local leaders stand behind early education, our whole community grows stronger! ๐ค๐
