Inside Higher Ed | Community Colleges to Get More Head Start Centers

Written By Victoria Jones

The Association of Community College Trustees and the National Head Start Association are partnering to bring more Head Start centers to community college campuses.

Fewer than 100 of the more than 1,400 community and technical colleges in the country have Head Start centers on campus. Meanwhile, Head Start programs are struggling to enroll children, with up to 180,000 childcare and early learning slots unfilled, according to a press release from the partners.
