Even Start
Even Start is a program that helps low-income parents and children to improve their education. Adults must have at least one child age 7 or younger to qualify for services. The goal of Even Start is to break the cycle of poverty and illiteracy. Research shows that children are more likely to learn to read well when their parents are able to read.
With federal funds, the state awards grants to local partnerships. Partnerships build on existing community resources. Services include early childhood education, adult literacy and adult basic education, and parenting education.
