INTRODUCTION

The Wyoming Head Start Collaboration Project and the Wyoming Head Start Association is pleased to present our annual programs report. This year we have chosen to compile all of our program information into three stateprofiles: an inclusive profile, Early Head Start profile and Head Start profile. These profiles include Tribal and Migrant programs.

Head Start and Early Head Start are comprehensive child development programs, which serve children from birth to age 5, pregnant women and their families. They are child-focused programs, and have the overall goal of increasing social competence of young children in low-income families. By �social competence� is meant the child�s everyday effectiveness in dealing with both his or her present environment and later responsibilities in school and life. Social competence takes into account the interrelatedness of social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development.

Head Start services are also family-centered, following the tenets that children develop in the context of their family and culture and that parents are respected as the primary educators and nurturers of their children. Head Start offers family members with opportunities and support for growth and change, believing that people can identify their own strengths, needs, interests, and are capable of finding solutions.

For this annual report, we have collected data from program year 2002-2003. We hope this information will provide insight to our state�s most vulnerable population.

Head Start

The Wyoming Head Start Association's vision is that of an active, unified voice for quality early childhood education, encompassing whole family development and setting standards for the future.

The mission is to serve as an advocate for Head Start programs and the children and families they serve, defining strategies, providing training and maintaining a network with other organizations whose efforts are consistent with the Wyoming Head Start Association. This will ensure high quality early childhood education for all children and provide parents with the tools to be primary educators for their children.

The Wyoming Head Start State Collaboration Project mission is to strengthen partnerships in Wyoming which foster a comprehensive and quality early childhood system firmly grounded in the Head Start principle of serving children and families. The project primarily focuses on early education and child care, enhancing early literacy of children, fatherhood, healthy marriages, faith-based and community initiatives, positive youth development, rural initiatives, the next-phase of welfare reform, as well as medical, dental, mental health and child safety services. The vision is one of a tightly woven network of support across the state for children and families.
