We’re grateful to Congressman Juan Ciscomani for his support of Head Start programs in our community.
Just visited Head Start in Eloy to reaffirm my strong support for this vital program. As a dad of six, I know early education matters. I’ll keep fighting in Congress to expand access—not cut funding—for Head Start across Arizona.

In collaboration with CAA, we hosted an ed. session regarding the impact in rural AZ if there is a reduction in funding or HS is eliminated. Thank you @JuanCiscomani for the closing remarks, @SenMarkKelly staffer, and @SenRubenGallego staffer for joining us at our event.
You are the first to teach, the first to encourage, and the first to love with everything you have. You’re the backbone of your child’s journey and of our Head Start community. Today, we honor YOU and all the incredible ways you show up every day. #HeadStartMoms #MothersDay
Wishing you endless tail wags and happy moments this National Dog Mom’s Day! #CelebratingDogMoms #HeadStartDogMoms #HeadStartFamily
