Recent News and Coming Events

                                           Last up-dated September 14, 2011

Enrollment - Head Start and Early Head Start

Our slots are filled, but you are welcome to request that your child be on the wait list if a slot becomes available this year.  Early Head Start is year-round and so any vacancies will be filled as they occur.

We did not have enough spaces this year nor last, so if you have or know of a child (ages 6 weeks to 4 years) who may be eligible, please stop in at any of our centers or the central office on Glenn, pick up an application and return the completed application.

WIC services are offered at Boykin Center in Auburn on Mondays and at Darden Center in Opelika on Wednesdays, both from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
