Northwest Arkansas Head Start is a non-profit agency serving children and their families. In the tri-county area we serve (Benton, Carroll, & Madison Counties), we operate 5 centers. Our program provides pre-school/prenatal/postnatal education services and much more at no cost to the families. Northwest Arkansas Head Start Human Services Inc is a comprehensive development program designed to meet the needs of children and their families from low-income households. Our program builds on the strengths of children and parents, identifies areas that need improvement, and provides an opportunity for all family members to overcome the challenges that repress them. The overall goal of our program is to bring about a greater degree of social competence to disadvantaged children by meeting their educational needs and providing for their social, physical, psychological, health and nutritional needs.
