Advocates for Children

Healthy Families Androscoggin is a voluntary home visiting program for expectant and new families that facilitates family interaction, fosters the value of fun, and provides support during challenging times.

Our trained certified parent educators partner with the family, in the family’s home, to build on family strengths that will enhance child development and parenting strategies.

Our team is here to:

• help you solve parenting challenges
  "....she just won't sleep through the night."
  
• connect you with resources or information that is of interest to you
  "Help! I can't decide if I want to immunize my child."
  
• help manage the issues that impact your ability to be the parent you want to be
  "Playing games is a little frustrating when I really want to think about paying for heat this winter."

Visits generally last an hour and are designed to be a fun, interactive time between parent, child and parent educator. To learn more about how your family can participate in this high quality, nationally certified home visitation program call us at 783-3990.
