Head Start Adopt A Classroom

HACAP’s goal is to provide essential resources to children during this critical time of growth to prepare each child, and their family, for success in school and in life. We operate 24 Head Start Centers in Linn, Johnson, Benton, Jones, Dubuque, Jackson, Delaware and Washington Counties, and funding to supply those classrooms with the items necessary to promote positive early development only goes so far – this is where we rely heavily on support from our community partners who are passionate about the development of our community’s youth.

Our Head Start centers are always in need of a fresh stock of art supplies, Picture/Board books, Toys, Games and other developmentally appropriate activities. For questions, or to be matched with a local classroom, contact Family Engagement Coordinator, Jackie Schropp, at (319) 739-0004 or email jschropp@hacap.org.

Food Drives

Organize a food drive in your community, workplace, or school to collect non-perishable items. Your efforts can help us stock our food pantry and provide nourishment to families facing food insecurity. To get started on holding your own food drive, contact the HACAP Food Reservoir by emailing foodreservoir@hacap.org or call 319-393-7811 (press 2).
