2011 needs assessment results: Data analysis summary report

Description:
The Head start Act (as amended December, 2007) requires the Head Start State Collaboration Office (HSSCO) to conduct a needs assessment of Early Head start and Head Start grantees and delegate agencies in the state in the areas of coordination, collaboration alignment of services, and alignment of curricula and assessments used in Head start programs with the Head Start Child Development & Early Learning Framework and, as appropriate, State Learning Standards. The Head Start Act also requires the HSSCOs to use the results of the needs assessment to develop a strategic plan outlining how we will assist and support EHS/Head start grantees in meeting the requirements of the Head Start Act. This plan must be updated annually and made available to the general public. Attached you will find the data analysis highlights on areas identified as needing assistance and support. The strategic plan will be completed and shared with the AHSA board and then to the public by making it available through the AHSA's web-site. An HSSCO Needs Assessment timeline has been attached for your convenience in order to show when to expect the completion of the strategic plan. (author abstract)
