For Families
Home Visitation
We offer no-cost, one-on-one home visitation for families in Richland County. Our Family Support Advocates (FSAs) — also known as home visitors — are certified through Parents as Teachers, a research-based early childhood parent education and family support program, which has shown improved outcomes for children and families across the country and the globe. We serve prenatal moms and children from birth to age 3 or 5 years old. FSAs visit with families either weekly or bi-weekly, depending on the area of Richland County you live in.
