Early Childhood Family Support         

 

Home Visiting and EC Family Support professionals share similar experiences and targeted outcomes of their work in partnering with families of children prenatally through the preschool years.  While we developed to meet the needs of home visiting professionals we provide many training opportunities that provide knowledge and skills for a variety of professionals partnering with these families.  To learn more about home visiting specifically as a service delivery, please click here to watch a brief video.

Our professional development is open to all professionals in this work and we work hard to provide accessible learning opportunities through online, blended and in-person formats.   Recognizing that resources are limited in many programs and organizations, professional development is offered at low costs with some opportunities provided free of charge. This allows professionals to connect with national frameworks, essential training on required and deeper levels of skills and knowledge needed to partner with families of diverse backgrounds and challenges
