| As a national laboratory, Head Start supports
research and evaluation of the Head Start program, its various
demonstrations, and related individual research activities.
In order for Head Start to maintain its leadership position
in the provision and demonstration of state-of-the-art services,
Head Start initiates and supports new research activities; synthesizes,
disseminates and incorporates into program operations important
research findings; and actively engages the academic community
in all research endeavors.
The Research and Statistics section is geared
toward researchers and practitioners seeking information on
numerous research activities supported by the Head Start Bureau
and other agencies studying the comprehensive child development
services provided by Head Start. This section contains information
on ongoing research, publications
and reports, research resources,
