Healthy Families: An Infant-Parent Development Program

Part of the Metro Alliance for Healthy Families, the Infant-Parent Development Program is designed for expecting and/or new parents who are impacted by significant stressors such as financial stressors, stressful relationships, mental health concerns, and/or chemical health concerns. 

Using a relationship-based home visiting model, Healthy Families offers a continuum of services to respond to the unique needs of each family.  These include:

• Access to community resources
• Advocacy
• Developmental information and guidance
• Emotional support
• Therapeutic services

Healthy Families is a voluntary program and families can stay enrolled for up to four years.

Funding

This program is funded through the Metro Alliance for Healthy Families and foundation grants.
