Head Start Basic Family Services Credential
The Basic Family Services Credential develop family service workers’ skills in twelve competency areas, including partnering with families, implementing the family goal setting process, developing parent involvement in child development and program governance, and providing family support in all service delivery areas. Each competency area corresponds to a component of the Head Start Program Performance Standards.
Quote: “I have worked with 22 family advocates in obtaining this credential (Basic Family Services). By the time they have completed their ‘notebooks’ they are able to access information needed as well as know their job responsibilities for their positions. We will continue to use this credential as we have new family advocates. Again, I say thanks for a job well done!” – Head Start Program Family Services Advisor |
