This bill proposes an amendment to the Higher Education Act of 1965, aiming to expand the definition of community services under the Federal work-study program. The core change involves explicitly including child development and early learning as eligible activities for students participating in the program. This expansion specifically encompasses work within established programs such as Head Start and Early Head Start . By broadening the scope of community services, the bill intends to allow more students to utilize their work-study funds to support vital early childhood education initiatives.
