Early Head Start Research and Evaluation (EHSRE) Project 2006-2010
In 2006, the Department of Health & Human Services (DHHS) launched a large-scale evaluation of Early Head Start (EHS) by randomly-assigning qualifying families at 17 sites nationally to participate and looking at their social, psychological, developmental and academic outcomes compared to a matched control group. Families in the control group were able to receive any services available to them. The evaluation followed families over five time points, according to the child’s age: 14 months, 24 months, 36 months, pre-kindergarten and 5th grade.
