Supporting Families Right From the Start

  

Healthy Families America accredited home visiting program, seeks to improve the health and well-being of infants and children through home-based services delivered by non-profit organizations in local communities. 


HFNY is an evidence-based voluntary home visiting model designed to provide services to families that begin prenatally, or at birth, through age five. HFNY uses an infant mental health/relational development approach that promotes parent-child attachment to achieve its mission of preventing child abuse, neglect, and other adverse childhood outcomes.


HFNY strategies are relationship-based, culturally sensitive, family centered, strength-based (building on parental competencies) and grounded in the parallel process. HFNY home visitors develop healthy relationships with families and partner with parents to support them in responding in a sensitive and in a nurturing manner to their young children. HFNY offers comprehensive support services designed to promote positive parent-child interaction, healthy child development, healthy relationships, family self-sufficiency, and connections to community resources when needed.

The goals of the program are to:

 

  • Support positive parent-child bonding and relationships.
  • Promote optimal child and family health, development, and safety.
  • Enhance family self-sufficiency.
  • Prevent child abuse and neglect.
