About the company

Dane County Parent Council, operating as Dane County Headstart, is a tax-exempt non-profit organization headquartered in Fitchburg, Wisconsin that serves as a federal grant recipient delivering comprehensive early childhood education and family support services through the Office of Head Start (CFDA 93.600).

Dane County Headstart operates predominantly as a sub-recipient of federal grant funding (76% of recent awards), with eleven prime grant awards since 2004. The organization's federal footprint centers on two customer agencies. The Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service accounts for 34 awards, reflecting sub-recipient awards under the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) and the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) flowing through the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction as prime grantee. The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families accounts for eleven awards across Dane County Headstart's direct Head Start and Early Head Start programming.

As a prime recipient, Dane County Headstart secured a $23.0 million Project Grant from the Office of Head Start effective January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2030, supporting Head Start and Early Head Start services designed to promote school readiness among low-income children and families. The award covers comprehensive programming including educational instruction, health and nutritional support, social-emotional development, and family engagement for approximately 2,300 children across traditional Head Start preschool for three- and four-year-olds and Early Head Start services for infants, toddlers, and pregnant women. The organization also holds an Early Head Start Child Care Partnership grant from the Office of Head Start awarded September 1, 2024, with ultimate completion August 31, 2029. Both prime grants carry a 20 percent non-federal match requirement and are subject to federal performance standards related to school readiness outcomes, health and family well-being metrics, and federal compliance.

Sub-recipient work flows through the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction under NSLP and CACFP sub-awards. The source reflects recurring monthly CACFP and NSLP sub-awards beginning July 2024 and continuing through April 2026, indicating ongoing participation in federal child nutrition programs as a sub-grantee serving Dane County's early childhood population. Activity accelerated significantly in recent years — one award in 2019, two in 2021, nine in 2024, and twenty in 2025 — with combined dollars obligated across all awards totaling $324.8 million. The organization has served three distinct federal customer agencies over the source period, with concentrated exposure to USDA food and nutrition programming and HHS early childhood development support.
