Head Start Program

The Human Resources Council offers quality preschool education for young children in Butte and Dillon.  The program is designed to give young children, ages 3-5, the skills they need to be successful in school by providing educational activities with qualified teachers, early childhood development, transportation, meals, and medical, dental and mental health services when needed.  Parent involvement is welcome and strongly encouraged.  Services are available to children who have special needs.

Eligibility

If you are a family with a child or children who are 3 to 5 years old, you live in Beaverhead or Silver Bow County and if your family's income is at or below 100% of poverty, your child or children are eligible for the Head Start Program.  The school may allow children from families with higher incomes if space is available and some space is reserved for children with disabilities.

How to Apply

You may apply for Head Start at any time.  The school year begins late in September.  For an application or more information, call 406-723-4078 in Butte, 406-683-9339 in Dillon or toll free 800-560-3734
