Today, President Bush signed into law the reauthorization of the Head Start Act. National Association for the Education of Young Children strongly urges Congress and the President to provide the increased resources needed to expand Early Head Start and Head Start to all eligible children, and to meet the new requirements for the program. NAEYC will publish a summary of the new law on their website soon.
