Healthy Families
Healthy Families Massachusetts (HFM) is a statewide, voluntary home-based family support and coaching program for first-time young parents funded by the Children’s Trust. Our Healthy Families programs serve the greater Brockton and Attleboro-Taunton areas.
This voluntary, home-based family support program is for first time parents.
The program helps to create a stable and nurturing environment for the child, providing support during pregnancy and the child’s first three years of life.
Home visitors teach parents about infant care, promote nurturing and attachment, practice effective parenting skills, and ensure parents have a solid understanding of healthy child development.
Group services are offered to promote social connectedness.
The program also assists parents on achieving personal goals related to education, employment, and the health/wellness of the family.
In addition, resources and referrals are provided as appropriate.
