Parents As Teachers

Parents As Teachers Program is Looking for Marion County Families

I am seeking new families for Parents As Teachers. This is a program that will increase parent knowledge of child development and help them learn appropriate ways to stimulate their child's intellectual, language, social and physical development. If you are working with a family or know of someone that could benefit from PAT services, please let me know. I am especially looking for Marion County children between the ages of 2 to 5. The family would only have to commit to 1 hour per month but will see great progress in the development of their child/children through this program. Thank you so much for helping me tell families about this great program.
