Who is eligible to participate in Even Start Family Literacy programs?
To be eligible for Even Start, a family is determined to be “most-in-need” when it has at least one eligible parent and one eligible child participating together. The definition of parent includes a biological or adoptive parent, a legal guardian, or other person standing in loco parentis, such as a grandparent or step-parent with whom the child lives or a person legally responsible for the child’s welfare.
