Head Start Policy Council

Head Start Policy Council

The Policy Council governs the entire Champaign County Head Start program through planning, monitoring, and decision-making. It consists of at least 51 percent parents, with the remainder being community people from organizations that serve Champaign County Head Start families or similar families. Parent representatives are elected by the parents of currently enrolled children. The Policy Council usually meets on the fourth Monday of the month except in December.
