Head Start has been a vital resource, providing early education, family support, and access to essential services. Today, proposed changes could put the quality of these critical programs at risk. Learn how you can take action: www.ecscalifornia.org/head-start-public-comment-guide

A must-read from calmatters.org on the value of Head Start, and what’s at stake for thousands of children and families across California. The piece includes ECS voices and was shaped in part by time spent at our Día del Niño celebration at St. John’s ECS Head Start in Chula Vista.

Today, ECS stood with Reps. Vargas, @levin.house.gov, and @sarajacobs.house.gov, the SD Chamber, and community leaders to oppose Medicaid cuts. Proudly represented by Stacie Perez and Embrie Tapia, we’re fighting for the health and dignity of our community.

TAKE ACTION NOW. A newly proposed federal budget would eliminate Head Start entirely, cutting off access to early education and essential family support services for thousands of underserved children across the San Diego region. Contact your Congress members nhsa.org/take-action #ECSSanDiego
