Tribal programs will now have the discretion to consider eligibility regardless of income. AIAN programs can use their selection criteria to enroll children who would benefit from Head Start services but do not meet income eligibility requirements. This selection criteria may include prioritizing children in families in which a child, family member, or member of the household is a member of an Indian tribe. During the session, participants will learn how the selection criteria are built from the community needs assessment and is unique to each tribal community.

AUDIENCE: Tribal Leaders, Head Start Directors, ERSEA Managers, Policy Council and Tribal Council members
