Federal Grant Pause Not Intended to Affect Head Start Programs Yesterday, the Trump administration issued a memo temporarily pausing federal grants and loan disbursements, causing some confusion across federal programs. We want to reassure Head Start grant recipients that this pause is not intended to affect Head Start programs. For clarity on which programs are impacted, please refer to this FAQ from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). We’ll provide updates as more information becomes available. Thank you for your patience and dedication to serving families!Jan 23, 2025
