Having celebrated Head Start’s 50th year anniversary
and in the face of growing support for universal Pre-K,
NHSA is poised to invigorate Head Start’s vision,
story, and relevance for future generations—
positioning it for lasting impact.
Shaping the next-generation Head Start
![Page 5: Next-Generation Head Start opening session 0926.pdfShaping the next-generation Head Start. Moreover, NHSA is increasingly facing pressure to quantify Head Start’s impact and apply](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042304/5ecfff49d3ee0724a0699883/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
This requires sharpening and raising Head Start’s
profile among larger parts of the American
population, and especially to members of Gen X and
Gen Y (millennials), as well as articulating and
promoting Head Start’s mission and relevance through
the media, social networks, and communication channels
of today’s digital society.

Moreover, NHSA is increasingly facing pressure to
quantify Head Start’s impact and apply advanced data
tools to ensure maximum return on the federal
investment.
This “Moneyball for Head Start” approach that some
propose presents an opportunity to further enhance the
program’s strengths and increase its impact…
Shaping the next-generation Head Start

…but data-driven decision-making must be balanced with
Head Start’s strong sense of purpose and a human-
centric brand that engages one at the moral,
intellectual, and emotional level.
