PMS offers many programs designed to care for the youngest members of our communities, which are free to eligible families. By working closely with children as well as their parents and educators, our programs encourage the growth and development of children from birth until they are 5 years old. Our programs focus on offering guidance, education, and support in early learning, health, and family well-being.

• Early Head Start: This federally funded program promotes academic readiness by helping children through their social and cognitive development by employing educational, health, nutritional, social, and other services. The program also helps parents reach their full potential for their personal, educational, or vocational goals. Early Head Start is available to pregnant women and their children between the ages of 6 weeks and 3 years old.
