CACS Head Start stands in solidarity with our communities of color; our black and brown communities and all who are impacted by violence and injustice. We will not ignore the impact of structural racism that OUR families, OUR staff and OUR partners continue to experience.

Head Start was founded on the principles of equality, inclusivity, and opportunity for all children. Now more than ever we are committed to these principles each and every day in everything we do. CACS Head Start classrooms welcome young children and their families to a place where they are valued, celebrated and cared for. It is our unwavering belief that ALL children deserve a future filled with hope and opportunity.

CACS, Inc. Head Start and Early Childhood Programs in Michigan is a comprehensive preschool program serving low income children ages birth to 5 years old. We serve 1761 children in Ingham, Eaton, Clinton and Shiawassee counties each year. Our mission is to support families and prepare children for success in school and in life.
