Home Visitation

One of the components of the Baby Bear Hugs program is the universal voluntary home visitation through a trained visitor.  This ongoing visits link expectant mothers and families with children ages 0 - 3 to a trained visitor offering home visits on a scheduled basis that works for the family.  Weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly visits are available.  The visitor offers support through the development of a friendly trusting relationship, parenting education, and connection to community resources.  Although the programmatic intent is to identify and visit mothers at the prenatal stage, those not participating are approached at the "Warm Welcome" visit.

The most recent component to be added to the ongoing visits is the Nurturing Parenting program.  Trained visitors can incorporate the Nurturing Parenting curriculum into the home visits for those families that want to participate.
