Heartfelt Message 
On Sept. 13, a Caseworker in the Early Head Start Home-Based program received this 
message from a parent who is moving out of the Head Start Birth to Five service area. 
 
“Thank you, Yolanda, for being a great Case Manager for my kids and me! You have 
tried to help me in every way possible with any questions and concerns I have, which 
was a lot! You helped me figure out what I should do to better help my kids, such as 
potty training and eating. And the kind of deep conversation we have about motherhood 
and parenthood will always be with me. I cannot thank you enough for all that you did 
for me. This is so bittersweet, and please always stay in touch! I will! I need friends, lol. 
This is not a farewell at all!”
