Home-Visiting Program - Sunrise Children’s Foundation (Clark & Nye)

Home Visiting is a program that serves expectant mothers and families with children up through kindergarten entry.  The aim is to teach parents appropriate ways to interact with their children, learn about how a child develops, and gain parenting skills and techniques to help them prepare their child for kindergarten. In addition to this, the program checks to see if families need other resources, assists with goal setting, and screens for domestic violence, depression, and substance abuse. Children are screened regularly to ensure they are developing well, both physically and in social/emotional ways. If needed, referrals are made for any of those resources.  Home Visitors are provided with a resource directory and taught to follow up on referrals and assist families with getting referrals and making appointments when necessary. Breastfeeding is encouraged and supported and agencies serving families with infants have Certified Lactation Educators on staff.

The Sunrise Children’s Foundation Home Visiting Programs are designed to support and empower parents in nurturing their child's potential. With a focus on school readiness, the program is tailored to each child’s developmental stage and interests, promoting literacy and preparing them for future school success.
