ABC Head Start is now accepting applications for the 2008-2009 school year.  ABC Head Start is a free pre-school and family support program for families of limited income.  Our programs are located in 12 locations across the city of Edmonton, including a francophone program.  Children’s services include four half-days a week of early childhood education.  Free bussing to and from class is provided as well as a daily nutritional snack.  The program follows the school year, running from September to June.

Each class of 16 children has a teacher, two teaching assistants, a part-time speech-language pathologist, and a social worker plus community volunteers. Special services (occupational therapy, community health nurses, cognitive and mental health assessments) are included as needed.  Social workers provide family advocacy and on-going parent support, including education groups.  See www.abcheadstart.org for more information.
