Dear Community Action Colleagues,
The Community Action Partnership is pleased to announce that we will host two webinars in collaboration with the Office of Head Start on the new Head Start Program Performance Standards (HSPPS). Ann Linehan, Deputy Director of the Office of Head Start, will be joined by several of her staff to review the new Performance Standards a  nd how they impact Community Action Agencies with Head Start programs. Given the complexity of the topic and to ensure we cover all the issues, this will be a two part webinar series. We ask all those planning to attend the webinar to:

 - Review the preamble and sections of the Head Start Program Performance Standards specific to the webinar(s) you are attending in advance ; and
- Submit questions to the Partnership at the email provided below to help us focus on high priority issues.
