The federal Head Start program, which provides preschool and child care services to low-income families, will soon stop requiring masks.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Administration for Children and Families, which runs the program, said on Sept. 16 that it plans to publish a rule that will rescind its mask mandate.
