The Washington Post | Head Start centers in community colleges can change the child-care equation

There's nothing like a good match, and a partnership announced this week between the National Head Start Association and the Association of Community College Trustees (ACCT) to put more Head Start facilities on community college campuses sets up a perfect couple.

Just look at the numbers to see how well they fit: More than 1 in 5 college students are parents. About 1 in 10 are single mothers, and nearly two-thirds of those mothers whose children are younger than 6 live at or below the povert line.
