Family and Community Engagement Program Goals and Outcomes
Family goal setting is essential to the work of Head Start programs. It relies on the information that program staff gather through assessments and ongoing communication, such as the families’ strengths, passions, and challenges. As relationships are built and strong partnerships formed, Head Start staff help families set goals and work together to make progress toward those goals.
Successful goal setting is done in seven steps in the context of the Family Partnership Process. Explore these resources to learn more about goal setting with families.
