Early Head Start

Empowering families 

SAL Community Services' (SAL) new Early Head Start Child Care Partnership (EHS CCP) provides comprehensive, individualized services to low-income infants and toddlers up to age 4, as well as pregnant mothers and their families living in Henry, Mercer, and Rock Island Counties, Illinois.

We offer Early Head Start sites in Milan, Moline, and Rock Island, Illinois, as well as partnership sites at All My Children, Butterflies and Bulldogs, Little Blessings Home Daycare, and P&J Tendercare.

Eligible families may choose from a variety of program options:

• Low-income families who are also eligible for child care subsidies with children up to age 3 may receive services in one of our Skip-A-Long Childhood Centers (SKIP), or our contracted partner center.
• Low-income families who are also eligible for child care subsidies with children up to age 4, who prefer an intimate home-like setting, may elect to receive quality, early childhood services through our contracted Home Child Care Network (HCCN) providers.
• Pregnant mothers and families with children under 3 years of age also have the option to enroll in our home-based program and receive services through weekly home visits and bi-monthly socializations

We're here to walk you through the eligibility requirements

We are currently welcoming applications for new families and children, in addition to those already enrolled at SKIP. If you have any questions about eligibility requirements or how to apply, please contact Iesha Wallace, Eligibility Specialist, at (309) 787-9460 x5009.
