The Ascension DePaul Services’s Early Head Start program provides comprehensive services to children six weeks to three years of age and their families, including full-day education services.

Head Start eligibility is granted if your family meets any of the following categories:

• The child is to be enrolled in foster care.
• The family is receiving benefits or services through the TANF program.
• A family member living with and supported by you is receiving Supplemental Security Income benefits (SSI).
• The family is homeless.
• The child has a disability, including a severe disability.
• Income eligibility requirements for Head Start may be waived if your child has a current Individualized Education Plan (IEP) or a current Individual Family Service Plan (IFSP).

Head Start services are available if your family meets the Federal Poverty Guidelines and is a resident of Bexar County. To see the HHS webpage for the guidelines – CLICK HERE
