Sec.  1305.9  Policy on fees.



    A Head Start program must not prescribe any fee schedule or 

otherwise provide for the charging of any fees for participation in the 

program. If the family of a child determined to be eligible for 

participation by a Head Start program volunteers to pay part or all of 

the costs of the child's participation, the Head Start program may 

accept the voluntary payments and record the payments as program income.

    Under no circumstances shall a Head Start program solicit, 

encourage, or in any other way condition a child's enrollment or 

participation in the program upon the payment of a fee.
