That’s what Head Start does for the U.S. economy. Every dollar our government invests in this essential program returns $7 to $9 by reducing crime, increasing earnings and decreasing social service costs.

Believe it or not, John, 90% of brain development happens before age 5.
It’s a critical time to nurture kids’ cognitive, emotional and physical growth – a major step toward bridging the achievement gap in low-income communities.
That makes early learning one of children’s BEST chances at breaking the cycle of poverty.
Kids need your voice and your compassionate support. Your donation will help hold lawmakers – from the White House to state houses – accountable to children’s needs. Please donate today – even $5 can make a difference!
