It is federally funded 80% and the other 20% is made up in in-kind donations. Absaroka Head Start has since expanded to seven counties, with centers in ten locations (Basin, Buffalo, Cody, Lander, Lovell, Powell, Riverton, Sheridan, Thermopolis, and Worland) and 19 classrooms. This area covers 28,616 square miles in rural northern Wyoming. In 1978, Absaroka Head Start was incorporated and became Absaroka, Inc. This year Absaroka Head Start will complete 45 years of service to the community of Worland.
