Research Clearly Demonstrates That America's Comprehensive Early Education/Health Program Is Effective, Generates Long-Term Benefits; Nearly 40-Year-Old Study Cited in Debate is Flawed, Outdated.

A wide range of recent research shows that Head Start -- the nation's premier early childhood and health program now serving about 1 million children and their low-income families each year -- yields major, long-term benefits for the children and families in the program and the communities in which they live, according to the National Head Start Association (NHSA).

May is Community Action Awareness month. The Lima Allen Council on
Community Affairs would like your input about the things that are important
to our community. L.A.C.C.A. has developed an online survey to ask the community
for input about the types of services that are needed to support low and
moderate income families as they work to achieve economic security. Please
take a few minutes to visit our website and completed the survey. Your input
is key to our success!
