I am a former employee of Head Start Learning Tree. I worked in the capacity of a family advocate for 5 years. That was one of the most wonderful and educational experiences of my life. The skills I developed there aforded me to move forward in life. My confidence was increased providing help to families was fulfilling and caused me to grow. The team that I worked with was fantastic and the united leader was responsible for that. Everything a family need is in Head Start.BRAVO
