Parenting skills and child development education are provided, along with referrals to other resources. Services are designed to strengthen families and improve the health of all family members.

Nurse Family Partnership • 324-1621
Public health nurses with specialized training visit first-time, low-income mothers in their homes, providing services to the pregnant women and their infant until the child is two years old. All low-income women who are less than 28 weeks pregnant with their first baby can join. The goals of the program are to help first-time parents succeed and to:

  • Improve pregnancy outcomes – healthier babies and healthier moms
  • Improve child health and development – support and education for new parents
  • Improve the economic self-sufficiency of the family – setting and reaching goals for the future
