A Message from the New Editor-in-Chief
Happy New Year! With the start of a new year, we had hoped that this issue of the Bulletin on the Early Heats program could greet you immediately after the holidays. However, the temporary Federal Government shutdown caused by the budget stalemate, along with the East Coast's January blizzard, way laid these best intentions.
The good news is that this issue focuses on the new Early Head Start program- a critical program serving families with infants and toddlers, as well as pregnant women. We hope you'll share our excitement about this landmark initiative which we introduce to you in the following pages.
As you can see form the masthead, I am the new Editor-in-Chief of the Head Start Bulletin. For the last six years, I have helped ACF's public affairs office provide information to the public about diverse programs, including Head Start, that help children and families. Previously, I worked in the U.S. Department of Education and the publishing field.
In the coming issues, we will be making a few changes to meet your needs (for example, the new RD&E column on page 4- now a regular feature). Please share your experiences, insights, questions, and returnable photos with us here at the Bureau. I welcome receiving your comments and suggestions at the following address:
Head Start Bureau

I am pleased to be part of the Head Start team and look forward to working with you!
