Today, Congressman Dan Meuser (PA-09) announced that Child Development Inc. in Minersville has been awarded a $ $3,221,397 grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through their Head Start program:

Head Start programs promote school readiness of children ages birth to five from low-income families by supporting the development of the whole child. They strive to promote children's growth in a positive learning environment through a variety of services, focusing on early learning, health, and family well-being.

"I have been a longtime supporter of the Head Start Program," said Rep. Meuser. "Every child deserves an equal opportunity to pursue the American Dream. Head Start helps give many underprivileged children this opportunity."
