The Pennsylvania Head Start State Collaboration Office and PEC are organizing a forum to explain our new report and offer insight from local leadership from rural, suburban, and urban regions.
The Forum is on Wednesday, February 23, 10 AM to 11:30 AM, via Zoom.
The forum will feature a panel of practitioners discussing strategies to increase enrollment and new data showing the prevalence of children experiencing homelessness enrolled into Head Start within the Commonwealth's 16 homeless housing regions, known as the Continuums of Care.
Moderators include Tracy Duarte, Director of the PA Head Start State Collaboration Office, and Joe Willard, Vice President of Policy, People's Emergency Center.
Panelists will include:
- Tiffany Jones of the Center for Community Action, which covers Bedford / Huntingdon / Fulton counties in the Eastern PA Continuum of Care and in the Early Learn Resource Center (ELRC) #6.
- Tabitha Kramer of Region 2, Education for Children and Youth Experiencing Homelessness. Region 2 covers Berks, Chester, Dauphin, Lancaster, Lebanon, and Schuylkill counties. Region 2 identifies more children experiencing homelessness than any other region in Pennsylvania.
- A leader from the ELRC #18 (Philadelphia) to be named.
- A local Head Start agency to be named.
