Please see attached flyer for information regarding a free, evidence-based skills training program for caregivers of children aged 0-5. 

The program focuses on three key outcomes universally important for families:
  • Creating positive relationships between caregivers and their children
  • Ensuring homes are safe to reduce the risk of unintentional injury
  • Keeping children as healthy as possible
In addition to the core curriculum, they offer several incentives and supports for enrolled families, including:
  • Safety proofing items for the home
  • First aid kits
  • Board games for family bonding
  • Assistance with basic needs while enrolled and actively participating

They also have certified car seat technicians on staff who can check car seats for safety and proper installation. There is a limited supply of car seats available for families who may need them.
