HEAD START CENTER DESIGN GUIDE

Chapter 4: Head Start Centers and Use of Space

4.3 Additional Requirements

In addition to complying with Head Start Performance Standards, Head Start centers must comply with the licensing and zoning requirements of the state or locality in which they operate, as specified in 45 CFR 1304.53 (a)(6) and 1306.30. When there is conflict between Head Start and state, tribal, and local criteria, the most stringent requirements will apply.

Licensing requirements vary among states and are constantly being updated and modified. The designer should review current state, tribal, and local requirements early in the design process.
