Join our Head Start and Early Head Start preschool program! Depending on the needs of our families, location, and availability, we offer both center-based and home-based care. Center-based programs take place at one of our locations in Oakland or Concord.
Our early childhood education program uses a play-based curriculum designed to meet each family where it’s at on the path to school readiness and meeting each child’s full potential. Our teachers make every effort to speak with children and their parents in their home language, we offer services in at least eight languages throughout seven head start and early head start sites. Parents are fully engaged and part of their child’s success.
