Head Start Family and Child Experiences Survey (FACES)

Description:

For over two decades, the Head Start Family and Child Experiences Survey (FACES) has been an invaluable source of information on the Head Start program and the children and families it serves. FACES 2019 is the current phase of this important endeavor. FACES 2019 has a Core Plus study design that provides data on a set of key indicators more rapidly and with greater frequency (Core studies) and serves as a vehicle for studying more complex issues and topics in greater detail and with increased efficiency (Plus studies). It also features the alignment of the study of Region XI American Indian and Alaska Native Head Start (AI/AN FACES) with FACES 2019 in Regions I-X.
