East Coast Migrant Head Start Project (ECMHS)

We provide free educational services for the children of agricultural workers, from 6 weeks to 5 years old. 

The families that qualify and enroll in our program do not have to pay for any of the services they receive. 

Parenting education, parent training on topics related to child development, nutrition, and health & safety, adult education in financial literacy, computer basics, ESL and more. 

ECMHSP actively recruits and provides services to children who are suspected of having a disability or are diagnosed with having a disability. 

The agency partners with local providers to ensure children with disabilities receive appropriate services in the least restrictive environment, ensuring full inclusion with non-disabled peers. 

Actively recruitment of children with disabilities. Children enrolled in our program visit their medical provider on a schedule of preventive and primary health care to ensure that growth is as expected, and any problem is identified early. This early identification can reduce complications, improve health outcomes, and ensure each child attending our program is ready to learn and succeed.
