Head Start Programs Sharing the Key Components of Their
Model and Lessons Learned
“Over the last ten years, fields from neuroscience to economics have
identified the early years of life as a critically important time to invest in
children’s life-long success. Yet children’s outcomes are deeply related to
their family context; changes in their parents’ education and income can
cause changes in the parent stress, home environment, and overall stability.
These factors that mediate whether children are in a nurturing environment
or face routine toxic stress. While Head Start has long recognized the
importance of a whole child and whole family model, new national awareness
has led to increased attention, funding, policy, and research around twogeneration efforts. Much of this research has confirmed that impacts on
family stability under grid children’s outcomes long after Head Start
graduation, and those impacts remain a key focus of Head Start.” NHSA Two Generations Together
The current research is extremely interesting and notes that “Two
Generation Approaches” make a big difference in child outcomes and
is also what makes Head Start different than other early learning
programs. Research on Head Start specifically also justifies the
importance of working with children and parents together. The
strongest two-generation Head Start/Early Head Start programs have
the greatest impact.
Join Your Colleagues and Discover the Latest Research and
Practice for Effective Two Generation Programs.
This Research Institute will help you take action to make
sure you are the Head Start for Two Generations.
Remember - “70% of Americans believe that if we want to
make sure low-income children are successful in their early
learning, then we also have to invest in their parent’s
economic well-being”. Ascend – The Aspen Institute
