The American Rescue Plan (ARP) provides many sources of direct and indirect financial relief for low-income families. Head Start programs can help all staff and families access critical supports for which they’re eligible. These payments and tax credits don’t affect family income in determining eligibility for Head Start and Early Head Start programs or count towards adjusted gross income for tax filers. Encourage families to file a 2020 tax return, if they haven’t already done so, to receive available credits.
Safety, health, and financial stability are key to family well-being. Explore ways program staff can promote and support family well-being.
