We recently received confirmation that our application for federal stimulus funds to expand Early Head Start services has been approved. We have been awarded funding which will allow us to provide 62 additional children and families with Early Head Start services.

We currently provide Early Head Start services to 98 children and families in Providence and Central Falls. With this new funding we will be able to serve 160 children and families in Providence, Pawtucket, and Central Falls.

We are excited to be able to expand our services at this time of great need in the community. This expansion of services will be implemented over the next several months.
