There is no fee for income eligible families to participate in this program that was designed in 1956 to primarily serve children from at risk families.

In addition, at least 10 percent of the children enrolled must be identified as having certifiable disabilities in such areas as speech, hearing, vision, or physical disabilities.Expenses $3,038,576 · revenue $136,399
