PROGRAM UPDATES & UPCOMING EVENTS The Delegate Agency (Catholic Charities) is developing a partnership with Maricopa County Courts’ Cradle To Crayons project to support justice involved families through the reunification process through expansion of their home visiting programs using the Early Head Start home-based service model. The Grantee/Delegate programs have engaged in a program self assessment to review compliance to Head Start Performance Standards. The results of this self-assessment will generate the identification of program strengths and areas of weakness which will lead to the de- velopment of program improvement plans.
