The Nurse Family Partnership is a program that provides a specially trained nurse to help first-time parenting families during pregnancy and after the baby is born, through the baby's second birthday.
- How to be healthy so the baby is born healthy
- How to be the best parent for the new baby
- How to plan for their future, including future pregnancies, education and work
During the program, parents and nurses may talk about things like:
- Health and child development
- Making the home a safe place for a baby
- Setting goals for life
- How to access services that are available
- Build a strong network of support for themselves and their baby
Services are covered by local agency funding and state/federal grants. Referrals can be made by primary care providers, community agencies, and individuals by contacting us at 509-941-4561 or by email at [email protected]
