  1. Its Head Start Awareness Month! Hear from the Office of Head Start Director Khari Garvin as he highlights the remarkable aspects of Head Start and inspires programs to reimagine Head Start built for the 21st century, looking ahead and planning for where we need to be in the future. Check out the Head Start digital Toolkit to help you promote what Head Start is all about.  ECLKC 

  2. Did you know October is also National Dental Hygiene Month? Oral health is one of the pillars of a Head Start program, ensuring every child has a dental home. In Florida, Head Start programs served 36,375 children with a continuous source of dental care. Here are resources to help staff maintain their daily toothbrushing program. ECLKC, updated October 16, 2023
