When parents enroll their children in an OLHSA Early Head Start/Head Start program, they can be assured their children will receive services stamped with the highest approval from the Federal Government. The monitoring review focuses on the delivery of services as well as the management systems that support services, accountability and fiscal integrity. In the most recent triennial monitoring review by the Office of Head Start (OHS) in April 2013, the OLHSA Head Start Grantee program was determined to have one non-compliance in the area of Child Health and Developmental Services.
In the process of correcting this non-compliance, the Head Start program created and successfully completed a Quality Improvement Plan. A follow-up visit by OHS in April 2015 found that the non-compliance had been corrected and met compliances of the Head Start Performance Standards and applicable laws, regulations and policy requirements. In the fall of 2018, we will be entering the third year of our five-year grant and anticipate a review using the new monitoring sytem during the 2018-2019 program year.
