In-Home Support for Parents

Through our Healthy Families Tennessee programs, we offer education and support to parents in their homes.

This evidence-based home visiting program provides weekly home visitation and support for parents from pregnancy through when their child enters kindergarten. Our largest, most intensive program focuses on this period because it is when 90% of brain development occurs. Healthy brain development is essential for later learning and health.  

Home visitors meet with families weekly in their homes using the Growing Great Kids curriculum to cover topics ranging from bonding with your baby, encouraging healthy child development, child safety, and many others.

Research demonstrates that the healthy families program

• Improves maternal, newborn, and child health

• Reduces child maltreatment

• Improves school readiness
