Wyoming Parents as Teachers welcomes expectant families and those with children up to 5 years old! ​
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.


Areas of Support
Family Support Specialists provide families with emotional support and access to knowledge and additional resources, including:
-
