Story from Dr. Feild

From Dr. Feild (executive director)

“I had a chance encounter with a lady today, whose 10-year-old son was a head start child. She could not say enough good things about the program, and how much help she and her child had received. Dr. Charles FieldThe good we do matters… And keeps paying off.”

“I met ANOTHER family singing the praises of Head Start.  The child was speech and language impaired and having behavior problems. ‘Head Start is what made the difference,’ pat yourselves on the back! Be proud of what you do!!”
