Onboarding is paramount in seamlessly integrating fresh talent into an organization while imparting essential knowledge about its structure, culture, vision, mission, and values, as outlined in section 1302.91 of the performance standards. Effective onboarding fosters a sense of belonging, comfort, and assistance for newcomers, enhancing their capacity to contribute productively and thrive early in their careers. As employee satisfaction and retention are closely tied to success, Head Start organizations can uphold their mission by ensuring new hires are positioned for achievement through thorough preparation and sustained support beyond the initial months. Onboarding transcends mere paperwork and evolves into a holistic approach to fully engage employees. This workshop will delve into key performance standards related to orientation/training, background checks, and updated qualifications/credentials for all Head Start staff, aligning with the imperative of providing new hires with the best possible start.

First, here is a quick note from The Gravely Group regarding what’s happening within the federal government. We understand that there is enormous uncertainty and confusion about the future of the Head Start program (and, let’s be honest, the future of all federal programs). For now, we will take the optimist’s view. The Head Start program has been the target of politicians since its inception 60 years ago. And it has always come out of it. As we wait for more clarity, we recommend calling your representatives in Congress, today and every day that you can, and telling them that you support the Head Start program. You can find your members of Congress at this link:?https://lnkd.in/grup5-2.

??HEAD START NEEDS YOU!! ????Head Start is funded under a Continuing Resolution (CR) that expires on March 14, 2025. Before the CR expires, Congress must pass an entire FY25 budget that funds Head Start at the levels proposed in the Senate's Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations (Labor/HHS) Bill. We can't let that happen. PLEASE take two minutes to email your Members of Congress today and urge them to support the Senate's funding level for Head Start in FY25.
