Sequestration and Head Start [View all]

I work as a Head Start Teacher/ family advocate and just found out that sequestration is right around the corner. Looks like we are going to end up losing classrooms and I`m trying to find out as much information about this as I can. It is so very sad for the children and their families that will be losing these services. I might end up losing my job too and I`ve worked for the program for 15 years now. I`ve written my Congressman and hope it helps but... I`m curious if any DUers know anything about sequestration? I just heard the term a few days ago and the uncertainty about the future is really bothering me. So if anyone has any suggestions or ideas about this subject I hope you will share. Thank you.
