Supported Parenting Program
 

The Supported Parenting Program is a family support, home visitation program which promotes positive parenting and healthy interactions between parent and child.

The Catholic Charities’ worker visits the home after the child is born and serves as a resource to the family as they grow through the first year.  The worker provides education about child growth and development and offers support and reinforcement for healthy parenting skills.  In addition, the worker offers assistance to all members of the family to resolve the tensions and discord which can arise about co-parenting, visitation, discipline, etc.

Service: Prepares, strengthens, and supports at-risk families in positive parenting skills as they interact on a day-to-day basis with their children.  The program:

  • Provides home visitation, assessment and education
  • Assesses needs of family and develops appropriate parenting goals
  • Connects families to others for socialization and supportive interaction

Clients Served: Families with developmental disabilities who have children from birth to age 7 or through first grade, which ever comes last.

Fees for Services: There is no fee for Supported Parenting Program clients.
