This week we’ve focused on an organization that works with migrant farm families in our area. United Migrant Opportunity Services, or UMOS, is primarily known for its Head Start program, but as we’ve learned, they provide many other services too.
Mike Milam, with University of Missouri Extension, is a member of the UMOS Board. He believes the Head Start program provides an invaluable service — and there would be a major gap without it.]
UMOS Head Start sites are in Malden, Cardwell, Caruthersville, Lepanto, and Monette.
