Early Head Start programs provide access to real educational opportunities for expectant families and children up to three years old. Early Head Start (both home- and center-based programs) includes Parent-Infant Educator visits to the home once per week, a social¬ization group twice per month at centers, opportunities to develop relationships with other children and families, resources for parents and families (including prenatal support), and a seamless transition from Early Head Start to Head Start programs and services.
