Health Services Advisory Committee

The Health Services Advisory Committee (HSAC) is a committee that supports children’s healthy development. This committee is a requirement of the Head Start Program Performance Standards.  The committee is led by the Health Services Director and its members may include our local health departments, nurses, physicians, dentists, nutrition, mental health providers, program parents, and Head Start staff.  HSAC strengthens the program within the community and provides recommendations to meet the needs of the children we serve.  HSAC generally meets in the fall and the spring, however, as a member, the Health Services Director may seek guidance on specific issues that arise.  To become a member of the HSAC contact Cindy Thomas (Health Services Director) for more information.
