The program offers outreach, where a worker meets you in your home or an out of office location. During these visits, the worker may provide information and support, referral to other services, advocacy and informal counselling.
The program may provide an opportunity for you and your children to have fun and meet other young parents through social events and activities.
You will also be sent a monthly newsletter with interest articles about parent and baby health and wellbeing, information about what's on, as well as recipes, tips and new baby arrivals.
