Early Head Start National Orientation Training

The Orientation Training is offered to new Early Head Start (EHS) grantees, Head Start grantees that have recently been funded to expand to birth to five programs, and existing EHS programs that have received expansion funds to increase their EHS services. The training is specifically designed for administrative staff and governing body members (e.g., Grantee/Delegate Executive Director, Board Chair, Policy Council Chair, or EHS Director) who are responsible for oversight of the development and implementation of the Early Head Start program. Attendees will:
  • Discuss expectations of the National Head Start Bureau
  • Hear lessons learned during the earliest years of the EHS initiative
  • Receive information on the unique aspects of Head Start/Early Head Start programs such as shared decision making with parents (program governance)
  • Learn about key resources available to support programs during this planning year
  • Have opportunities to network and refine planning for new and expansion programs
  • Understand key differences between services for preschoolers and their families offered in Head Start programs and services for pregnant women, infants, toddlers and their families offered in Early Head Start programs
