Offers new mothers and parents of young children support to nurture their children in a positive, enriching and rewarding way. Once a family is enrolled in the program, a home visitor will begin visiting, usually once a week. The home visitor serves as a resource for parenting, child development and child health information, and is familiar with other resources in the community. Home visiting is tailored to meet each family's needs. It is designed to use the strengths of the parent to achieve goals she sets for her family. Families can become eligible during pregnancy and until the child turns 6 years old. Services are free to families in Charlottesville, Nelson County and Albemarle County.
