New Directions Early Head Start
Empower children and their families to build brighter futures.

About This Project

New Directions Early Head Start (NDEHS) offers home visiting and center-based services for families. Every child deserves a safe, nurturing place to grow and learn. Your support helps us give children what they need to thrive while we assist families on the path to secure, stable housing. 

NDEHS is an inter-agency program committed to empowering and supporting pregnant participants, infants, toddlers and their families. The consortium is comprised of multiple agencies including The Delaware Institute for Excellence in Early Childhood, the Department of Human Development and Family Studies at the University of Delaware and community provider agencies.
