The Office of Head Start is making great strides with the implementation of parent, family and community engagement. As this national move takes place to provide guidance to programs, parent involvement is still at the apex of it all. Delegate Agencies are required to establish and maintain a system of shared governance through which parents can participate in the decision-making processes about the program. Full guidance on collaborative governance is available in the CELS 2.0 Standards Manual pages 19-32.
