Board Resources

Governance Readiness Tool

This tool helps organizations’ governing bodies and leaders assess their capacity to effectively oversee a Head Start program.

School Readiness Goals

Kids Central, Inc. has engaged in a process to align its school readiness goals with the Head Start Child Development and Early Learning Framework, Virginia State Early Learning guidelines, and the requirements and expectations of the schools the children will attend to the extent that they apply to children participating in the Early Head Start (EHS) and Head Start program.

Governance Training

Strong leadership and governance are critical to providing quality services in Head Start and Early Head Start programs. Head Start leaders must ensure the governing body/Tribal Council and Policy Council each has a membership that complies with Sec. 642(c)(1)(B) of the Head Start Act. Governing body/Tribal Council and Policy Council members are required to obtain ongoing training and technical assistance (T/TA) so they can fully understand and fulfill their roles and responsibilities.
