The Secondary Analyses of Head Start Data funding opportunity aims to support researchers conducting secondary analyses of data to address key questions of relevance to Head Start (HS), Early Head Start (EHS), American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN), and Migrant and Seasonal Head Start (MSHS) programs. Findings are intended to inform policy, program administration, and future research. Researchers may conduct secondary analyses of survey, program evaluation, or administrative data. Data sources from primary research and evaluation may also be candidates for secondary analyses. A data source may be used by itself or linked with other data sources to best address the research questions proposed.
These include HS programs serving families with children 3 to 5 years old, EHS programs serving expectant families and families with infants and toddlers, AI/AN HS programs serving families in tribal communities, and MSHS programs serving families engaged in migrant and seasonal farm work.
