At Parent Promise, we offer a variety of programs to help parents provide a loving, healthy home for their children, and to help everyone provide a safe, nurturing community for children to grow. All of our programs are positive, voluntary and family-focused. We know the challenges and joys of being a parent. We know each person has a role to play in supporting children.
- Start Right: A home visitation program that promotes positive parenting and encourages child health and development. A Family Mentor conducts weekly visits to help new and expecting parents provide a healthy, nurturing home for their children.
- Pregnant & Parenting Teen Education: Pregnant and parenting teens in local high schools and transitional housing receive parenting classes. The classes also focus on the importance of education, self-esteem, proper infant care and other life skills.
- Baby Think It Over: Provides infant simulators to students in local middle and high schools to create a realistic parenting experience. Includes two days of facilitated discussion about the realities of teen parenting.
- The Front Porch Project: A two-day training for community members that reflects the belief that everyone can—and should—become more aware of how to help protect children in their own community. The training will teach participants how to make a significant difference in the life of a child and how to apply strategies for intervening when necessary to help protect children and assist families.
- Circle of Parents: Community-based parent support groups. Groups are hosted, convened and facilitated by parents, while we provide support in the form of curriculum, speakers, and child care.
- Parenting Resource Library: Informational brochures, books and videos available to any parent. If you have questions about parenting, we have answers.
