Report of the Advisory Committee to the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services

The Improving Head Start for School Readiness Act of 2007 requires the Secretary to develop a system of designation renewal that integrates the recommendations of an expert panel. The document below,“A System of Designation Renewal of Head Start Grantees: Report of the Secretary’s Advisory Committee on Re-designation of Head Start Grantees,” presents findings and recommendations of that expert panel.

Core Document:

Please note that the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), in implementing these provisions, will describe the proposed system for designation renewal in the Federal Register. A 90-day comment period will begin after the Federal Register announcement is published. HHS will review and consider public comments prior to finalizing the system for designation renewal.
