Giving Children a Head Start

RMDC Head Start is a leading early childhood program serving 250 low income children and families each year in Lewis & Clark, Broadwater and Jefferson counties.

Our imaginative, engaging preschool environments give children their first taste of what will become a life-long love of learning. Parents participate fully in their child's Head Start experience. This participation provides parents with the ability to help their child succeed in public school.

The comprehensive way we serve families is one of the most unique qualities of Head Start. We offfer services in areas of health, nutrition, disabilities, mental health and transportation.

Head Start has a strong focus on parent leadership so that parents become engaged not only in their child's education, but also in their growth and development. Additionally, our experienced social services staff offer ongoing support and education to parents so the entire family is stronger as a result of their time with Head Start.
