Head Start is a national program which provides comprehensive developmental services for America's low-income, pre-school children ages three to five and social services for their families. Specific services for children focus on education, socio-economic development, physical and mental health, and nutrition. During the week of Spring Break, participants will be working with this program on a Cherokee Nation reservation in Tahlequah, OK.
