The Office of Head Start (OHS) hosts the Voices Café as a forum for the Head Start community to share their experiences. Our next café is an opportunity for Head Start community members to consider their provision of services and discover methods to help strengthen birth outcomes for expectant families. Focusing on EquiTEA and Black maternal health, we are reflecting on ways programs identify disparities and offer pre and postnatal support.

The OHS Voices Café is a safe space to engage in meaningful conversations, listen and reflect, and share thoughts and ideas with others in the Head Start community.
