$2 million awarded to Community Action Partnership in Jamestown

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services awarded more than $2 million to the Community Action Partnership in Jamestown to support the organization's Head Start projects, Sen. Kevin Cramer, R-N.D., recently announced.

This discretionary funding is administered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Office of Head Start within the Administration for Children and Families.

Head Start and Early Head Start programs provide services for low-income families with young children. The programs also encourage communities to cultivate enriching environments that promote the physical, cognitive, social and emotional development of infants and toddlers.
