Created in 1965, Head Start is the longest-running program for stopping the cycle of PoverTy in the United States. It provides comprehensive education, health, nutrition, and parent involvement services to Low Income children and their families. As of late 2005, more than 22 million Pre School aged children have participated in Head Start. The $6.8+ billion dollar budget for 2005 provided services to more than 905,000 children, 57% of whom were four years old or older, and 43% three years old or younger.
mixed reviews http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head_Start
a friend of mine, who helped administer a Head Start program years ago, said that the health/nutrition part (like [School Lunch] rules) is more of a USDA Big Agriculture SubSidy than anything else.
