Brightpoint IL

Every person who reaches our programs has a story, and every number represents someone who received support and resources when they needed it most.

Through our programs and community partnerships, we continue helping children, youth and families access mental health resources and support close to home. We are grateful to continue this work and support our communities every day through our programs.

Happy Birthday to Head Start! Since 1965, Head Start has helped children and families build strong foundations through early education, health services and family support. Its preventative approach connects families with the resources they need to thrive and helps ensure children are ready to learn, grow and succeed.

We are proud to provide Head Start center-based and home-based/home visiting services at all our Child and Family Centers across the state and to continue supporting children and families in our communities every day.
