CAO Head Start

Free, full and half day, early childhood education centers throughout Western New York and Niagara County areas for children ages 0 - 5. We also offer pregnant parent, home based and referral for service programs for our families. CAO of WNY’s Head Start/ Early Head Start programs prepare children to succeed in school from day one. We do this by providing a rich, positive environment that fosters age-appropriate academic and developmental growth five days a week, Monday through Friday. Our programs focus on school-readiness skills both inside and outside the classroom. In addition to laying a firm foundation for academics, we help build confidence and understanding of the world through such relevant topics as health, nutrition, social skills, and physical activity.
