Parenting support
Parenting can be a really tough job sometimes. We recognize and respect that you know your child best. Our staff are available to partner with you when viewing your family and your child "through a different lens" might be exactly what you need the most. Some of our programs include:
Parents as Teachers- for prenatal or new parents, all the way up through age 5
Families in Training- for extra support when life throws you some challenges, available for families with children of any age
Resource and Referral assistance: our staff are very familiar with the resources available in the greater Bristol area, and can help connect you with other programs/services that may be able to help when you need it.
Kith and Kin support- sometimes, families find themselves unexpectedly taking on a full or partial parenting role due to circumstances that were outside of their control- and in many cases, without any advance notice. We welcome all families, all kids, all circumstances.
Ready for K text messaging: Ready for K is a FREE text messaging service (data/message rates may apply depending on your cellular plan) which offers guidance for parents of children up to age 10, including child development, behavioral support, connecting to our own local community resources, and so much more!
