Raising Healthy Kids
Raising Healthy Kids is another Casa de los Ninos initiative in the area of child abuse prevention. Low-income parents with children ages 5 and under are eligible. The program is funded by First Things First and offered in partnership with the Easter Seals Blake Foundation.
The Raising Healthy Kids program provides at-risk parents with in-home support from a Community Health Specialist. This specialist makes visits in the home to work with families on bonding and attachment, child development activities, parenting skills and school readiness. In addition, the Community Health Specialist will assist the family with personal goals, community resources, and other support services as needed.
