Even Start

Even Start is a federal program in the United States that provides family-focused education and support. Its goal is to help low-income families improve their literacy skills—including reading, writing, and math—so they can better support their children's learning and development. The program offers classes for parents and children together, emphasizing early literacy, parenting skills, and adult education. By strengthening family literacy and providing resources, Even Start aims to break the cycle of poverty and promote lifelong learning within families.
