2. Home Visiting Services
Our home visiting services program provide free support for low-income families with young children prenatal to 36 months old – with and without disabilities – living in Andrew, Buchanan, Clay, & Platte Counties. Certified parent educators visit families’ homes and serve as a resource to help parents better understand their child’s development, help implement nurturing parenting skills, and help connect the family to community resources.
Home Visiting Services are funded through the Missouri Department of Social Services Children’s Division, the Children’s Trust Fund, and Promise 1000.
Again the center is located in KC but we provide a variety of early childhood services statewide in other ways.
