In a new piece for The Conversation, Bridgette Davis (public policy) and Alexander Thim (PhD candidate, economics) argue that the Trump administration's proposed changes to regulations guiding Head Start could undermine services for the country’s poorest families. According to Davis and Thim, the proposed changes would neither "enhance the quality nor broaden the availability of the program to the children and families who need it most." They also highlight the history and purpose of the program and emphasize the broad support the program has, pointing towards the public comment section affiliated with the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking.
