Abstract
The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is proposing a new information collection, using qualitative case studies, to examine how and why Head Start grant recipients convert enrollment slots from Head Start to Early Head Start and the facilitators and barriers to the implementation of high-quality Early Head Start services following conversion. This information collection aims to present an internally valid description of the experiences of up to six purposively selected cases, not to promote statistical generalization to different sites or service populations.

the Conversion of Enrollment Slots from Head Start to Early Head Start
(HS2EHS Study) aims to gather qualitative data about the experiences of

planning for and implementation of high-quality Early Head Start
services following conversion; and (c) barriers and facilitators to the

council members, Head Start Training and Technical Assistance staff,
and state and local Early Care and Education leaders and community
partners.
