This research brief draws on data from the 2021-2022 Study of Family and Staff Well-Being in Head Start Family and Child Experiences Survey Programs (the 2021-2022 Study) to investigate associations between the well-being of Head Start children and families and factors related to the pandemic. Based on data collected from October 2021 to January 2022, this brief examines the challenges Head Start children and their families faced during the pandemic, the types of support they received, and how both were associated with their well-being. The findings shed light on children's and families' well-being and can inform which resources families found most helpful, as well as which supports programs could build on. Findings also highlight areas where more support may be needed. The data in this brief provide a window into the experiences of a sample of Head Start children who had teacher child reports completed between November 2021 and January 2022 and families who were able to respond to the survey between October 2021 and January 2022.
