Early\r\neducation is essential for a bright future and Head Start provides our youngest\r\nWest Virginians with the skills and education they need to succeed, no matter\r\ntheir background. I'm a longtime supporter of Head Start and know this\r\ninvestment will continue to benefit the programs across our state. As a member\r\nof the Senate Appropriations Committee, I will continue to advocate for Head\r\nStart funding so they can give our children the chance they deserve, said\r\nSenator Manchin \r\nPrograms like Head Start provide our children with the foundation needed to\r\nset them on a trajectory towards success, Senator Capito said. The\r\nCOVID-19 pandemic has shown how resilient our students are, but it has also\r\nunderscored the need for additional support to schools across our state.
