Healthy Families America (HFA) provides substantial interaction with parents and children, creating healthy relationships and positive collaboration from prenatal to five years of age. HFA is designed for parents facing a variety of challenges, such as single parenthood; low income; childhood history of abuse and other adverse child experiences; and current or previous issues related to substance abuse, mental health issues, and\/or domestic violence. The goal of Healthy Families America is to positively impact the wellbeing of mothers, children, and their families early on, and further maintain a loving, self-sufficient future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2024, Healthy Families America affiliations in Wisconsin provided care to 1000 families at 15 different sites, resulting in 14,598 visits.\u00a0 For every dollar invested in Healthy Families, there is a $3.11 savings on future health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
