Community Action Inc. of Central Texas’ Early Childhood Home Visiting Program is taking on new and previous clients.
The Early Childhood Home Visiting Program connects families with knowledgeable and friendly parent educators who share information on development-centered parenting, parent-child interaction and family well-being. The program normally includes home visits, group connections, child development screenings and connections to community resources. It equips parents with knowledge and resources to prepare their children for a stronger start in life and greater success in school.
“It is an excellent opportunity to be connected to resources,” Community Action’s Lead Parent Educator Nina Ramos said. “It's continuous parenting and family support, that is tailored to each family. Each family is matched with a parent educator that takes time with each family to figure out the best way to serve them. Some families need lots of resource support and others are more interested in the child development piece.”
