  3. NHSA Survey: As NHSA continues to assess and respond to the proposed changes to the Head Start Program Performance Standards, they are gathering critical information on how these changes could affect programs on the ground. Please take a few minutes to complete NHSA’s brief survey by September 4, 2026, and share how the NPRM could impact the services your program provides, including potential cost implications.

Please visit our WYNTK resource webpage, for archived WYNTK and FHSA events for more information. If there is something else you need guidance on, let us know - we are happy to connect with you and learn how FHSA can serve you better.
