What is Head Start?

Salt Lake CAP Head Start is a comprehensive early childhood development program serving low-income children from age three to five and their families. Head Start is a Federal program that is operated by local non-profit organizations such as Salt Lake Community Action Program (CAP). Children who attend Head Start participate in a variety of educational activities including literacy, language, science, social-emotional, and much more. They also receive medical and dental services, have healthy meals and snacks, and enjoy playing safely indoors and outdoors.

"My son Paul has benefited in so many ways from Head Start. As a whole, he has become much more sociable and communicative, his speech has improved dramatically, and he is able to express his feelings verbally. In other words, Head Start helps children become more mature, realize their place in society, and think and act constructively. I can't stress enough the importance of this program, and the necessity of all its services. As a group, children can achieve much more then on their own. They fight their fears more effectively, are more open for new choices and opportunities, and make better friends while experiencing together every aspect of life."

-Anna, Head Start Parent
