Catholic Charities, Head Start, and EnrollNOLA are excited to announce our new application system for families applying to both Head Start and Early Head Start Programs!

The new OneApp process will make it easier for parents to apply to multiple Head Start programs across the city. In previous years, parents had to fill out individual applications for every Head Start center they were considering for their child. Starting this year with OneApp, however, they will fill out a single online application, which can be sent to up to 20 Head Start centers throughout New Orleans.  “I believe the OneApp process will grant families the opportunity to access high-quality programs and ensure that their youngest learner receives the best education possible,” said Raynell Washington, the ERSEA Coordinator for the Archdiocese’s Head Start programs.

Parents who do not have internet access or need help filling out the online application can visit any of our Head Start sites to get assistance from our Family Resource Workers.  Additionally, EnrollNOLA provides four convenient Family Resource Centers throughout the New Orleans area to offer assistance with the application process.

Look out for more exciting Head Start news in the coming months!
