I thought the point of Head Start was not to get kids ahead, but to help them start elementary school on the same playing field with some of the same life experiences as those that do go to preschool. It is to keep them from having to start out behind and always playing catch up later in school. I would absolutely put a child into the program so taht they are getting exposed to the basic social and problem solving preschool skills tought at every other preschool.
