“We’re intentional and we know that we have documented proof that the children that we are serving have made great gains.”
-Stacy Johnson
Today’s guest is Stacy Johnson, the Chief Program Officer/Director of YWCA Head Start, a federally funded early education program that provides education, child care, and family support to low-income families. Stacy sits down with Staci to discuss what makes Head Start stand out over standard pre-k programs, misconceptions about early childcare, how Head Start is tackling school readiness, and the difficulties families face in the early childcare space.
