Cache County Home Visiting Program (MIECHV)
Project Description:
The Cache County Maternal Infant and Early Childhood Home Visiting Program is designed to empower families from pregnancy through kindergarten age with the Parents as Teachers Curriculum. This evidence-based, no cost home visiting program is dedicated to offering holistic support to families with young children. By focusing on parent-child interactions, development-centered parenting, and family wellness, our program is committed to nurturing strengths and skills within each family. We support a wide variety of families: first time parent, pregnant and under age 21, households with a member of the family who is serving or has served in the military, foster or temporary caregivers, recent immigration or refugee, families with infants born with low birth weight, and families facing housing instability and so much more.
