BALLSTON SPA — Congresswoman Elise Stefanik, R-Saratoga, this week announced LifeWorks Community Action, Inc. in Ballston Spa will receive $2,301,666 for Head Start Projects from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
“Over two million in taxpayer dollars will be returned to our district in the form of this grant,” Stefanik said, in a statement. “Head Start serves many families in Upstate New York and the North Country, and this investment will help it continue its mission of ensuring school readiness and positively impact the future of our communities.”
LifeWorks Community Action is the branded name of the former Saratoga County EOC. The name change went into effect in January 2021.
The Head Start program provides comprehensive early childhood education and development services to promote school readiness for low-income children.
