Catholic Charities Westside Head Start and Early Head Start provide
comprehensive, early, continuous, year-round, childhood education through a
holistic approach by working with the whole family. We also offer in-home
services for pregnant expectant mothers. Our programs emphasize pre-reading,
language, math, cognitive skills, health, and social and emotional competence to
prepare disadvantaged children for school and to maximize their potential for a
bright future.

We also offer home based services for expectant mothers and children 0-3 through
weekly home visits to each enrolled child and family. WSHS provides
child-focused visits that promote the parents’ ability to support their child’s
development. The visits last 90 minutes. Twice a month, the program offers
opportunities for parents and children to come together as a group for learning,
discussion and social activity.

For our center-based program, we offer full day, 8:00 am-2:00pm sessions.
