How It Works
Once paired with a certified Family Support Specialist, families meet with their Family Support Specialist weekly for the first 6-8 weeks, then twice a month after that, in a family’s home or another environment the family prefers.
Visits are individualized based on the family’s needs and interests, and each visit includes an activity designed to build attachment and enhance caregiver-child interaction.
What Do Visits Look Like?
During a visit, we focus on three main topics:
-
Parent-child interaction through fun activities that promote your child's growth
-
Parenting topics that impact child development, such as attachment and sleep
-
Overall well-being of the family
At the end of each visit, your family will receive a book to enjoy together!
