FAMILY SERVICES

Comprehensive - Holistic Family Services

FCF Head Start incorporates comprehensive services for the entire family. Each family that receives services has a Family Advocate that works with the family.

Services Include:


  • Each family working with a Family Advocate gets a minimum of four home visits per year;
  • Parent learning opportunities and trainings (parenting classes, nutrition classes), health information/education, assistance in furthering education, and information on community resources;
  • Referrals to community resources and services;
  • Transition planning help as your child enters or prepares to leave FCF;
  • Supporting families through a goal setting process.




Parent Involvement


FCF is dedicated to the principle that parents are the single most important part of the Head Start community. Parents make important contributions of ideas, time, and commitment to FCF. Together we cultivate healthy, active involvement in our communities and share in the diversity of family values and culture. We understand that self-confidence enables families to achieve personal goals as they transition from Head Start.
