For Parents
Welcome past, present, and prospective Head Start & Early Head Start parents and primary caregivers to the “For Parents” section of the WHSA website!
We know you’ve visited this site because you want to contribute to your child’s future and know how important a “Head Start” can be to your child success. Here you will find useful information to guide your decisions about care for your child and to help you connect to resources in your community.
Are you a current or past Wisconsin Head Start or Early Head Start parent or family member? If so, we’d like to hear from you! WHSA and its Parent Affiliate have developed the Head Start through Our Eyes campaign to collect individual and family experiences of Head Start in our state. We want to hear about the positive impact Head Start has had on your child or family. Please share your unique story to help inform other parents and families about Head Start and let the public and policymakers know how Head Start contributes to the success of our state’s children, families, and communities. To share your story simply visit the Head Start through Our Eyes page on this website and submit your impact statement using the online form. We look forward to hearing your story!
