This Women’s History Month, we are honoring the incredible women who make our Head Start program possible. From our dedicated teachers and specialists to our administrators and support staff, women are the backbone of early childhood education.

Did you know that nationwide, nearly 97% of early childhood educators are women?

At TOA's Head Start & Early Head Start programs, these professionals aren't just teaching; they are:

💛Shaping young minds during their most critical phase of development.
💛Advocating for the needs of our local community.
💛Leading the change for a more equitable and sustainable future.

Join us in saying thank you to the women who show up every day with heart, dedication, and purpose! 🫶 Head Start Cumberland County, Maine
