Head Start through Our Eyes–Share YOUR Story!

Past and present Wisconsin Head Start & Early Head Start parents–WHSA wants to hear from you!

Head Start through Our Eyes is a campaign by WHSA and its Parent Affiliate to collect individual and family Head Start stories and impact statements from across our state.  We want to learn about your family’s positive Head Start experiences and how the program has made a difference in your life.  We’ll use the collected impact statements to help inform prospective parents about Wisconsin Head Start and to let the public and policymakers know why Head Start is important for our state’s children, families, and communities.  Impact statements, in full or part, may be included on WHSA’s website or in its informational materials.

We look forward to hearing your unique Head Start story.  Thanks for sharing!
