The Vermont Head Start Collaboration Office (VHSCO) is required under the Head Start Act to conduct and update annually a needs assessment of Vermont Head Start and Early Head Start grantees in the areas of coordination, collaboration and alignment of services, curricula, assessments, and standards used. The needs assessment report provides an overview of the VHSCO; describes Head Start and Early Head Start programs in Vermont; outlines the needs assessment process; and presents the findings of the 2017-2018 VHSCO needs assessment web-survey of Head Start and Early Head Start grantees.
