Policy Council
Children First’s Policy Council is the decision-making body
made up of parents and community representatives.
Policy Council approves policies related to program operation and has input regarding all operations in the Head Start program. At least fifty-one percent (51%) of the members of Policy Council are parents of enrolled
children in Head Start. Elections for representation are held at each site in September.
A representative for each program offered at the respective site is elected. This means at some sites, there is both a pre-school and an
infant toddler representative. Members elected to the council serve one (1) year terms beginning in October and ending the following September. Members may be re-elected, but terms may not exceed five years. Regular
meetings of the Council are held once a month.
