On May 18, 2025, the Head Start program officially marked 60 years of helping children learn, grow, and shine. The Office of Head Start (OHS) is observing this milestone today, Monday, May 19, with a national celebration honoring the innovation, impact, and legacy of the Head Start program — and we invite YOU to celebrate with us!
Since 1965, Head Start programs have supported millions of children and families across the country by providing access to essential early learning, health, and family services. This historic achievement reflects the unwavering dedication of our workforce, the resilience of families, and 60 years of advancing outcomes through strong, trusted relationships.
