Sen. Ossoff Delivering New Resources to Expand Pre-School Opportunities for Georgia Families

Washington, D.C. — U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff is delivering new resources to expand pre-school and childcare programs for Georgia families.

Sen. Ossoff today announced this year’s bipartisan government funding bill, which passed Congress and has now been signed into law, includes a $1 billion increase in funding to boost access to quality childcare and Head Start programs in Georgia and nationwide, roughly a 30 percent increase in funding.

Head Start programs support children’s growth from birth to age 5 through services that support early learning and development, health, and family well-being. Head Start staff actively engage parents, recognizing family participation throughout the program as key to strong child outcomes.

“Every child in Georgia deserves a safe, healthy, and happy preschool education. Bringing Republicans and Democrats together, we’re delivering a historic increase in funding for Head Start programs in Georgia and nationwide,” Sen. Ossoff said.

Sen. Ossoff continues working to expand preschool and educational opportunities for Georgia families.

In the last year alone, Sen. Ossoff has delivered funding through Head Start for local programs across Georgia, including in AugustaAlbany and Southwest GeorgiaBaldwin CountyNortheast GeorgiaHancock County, and more.
