This year is an important milestone – 50th Birthday – for the Head Start program.  PBS Newshour highlighted the Head Start anniversary with its video, “What’s the legacy of Head Start 50 years on?”

Thanks to advocates more than 50 years ago, Head Start was created and more than 32 million children living in poverty were given an opportunity for success in school and in life.  You can continue their legacy and join LFCS in advocating for today’s kids by joining our Online Advocacy Network.

LFCS operates Hilltop Child Development Center in North St. Louis County and offers Head Start slots.  We are grateful for the Head Start program and its work to help make families stronger and children be the best they can be.
