New GAO Report Tells HHS/ACF to Fix Accountability Measures
A February review of the Head Start program, one of the largest federal early childhood programs, showed that the program is prone to wastefulness and inferior service due to the lack of federal oversight. The Government Accountability Office ("GAO"), who conducted the review, recommended that the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) develop a comprehensive risk assessment of the Head Start program and improve the processes it currently uses to collect information on program risks.
