preschool children from low-income families. The Head Start program allows the
County to provide these services to program eligible children, ages 3 to 5 years.
IV. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
On September 11, 2001, the Board approved and authorized submission of the
2002 Head Start Basic Grant Application to the U.S. Department of Health and

program services to approximately 1,816 children and their families for the period
