Pregnant women and mothers of newborns are invited to receive free parenting tips, baby items, information about childhood health, and more from Project Self-Sufficiency’s Healthy Families program. The program combines home visits by certified professionals with educational outings for mother and child to help parents boost literacy levels and address health issues within their new family. Women with children up to the age of three are eligible.
Feeling isolated and overwhelmed are common issues with mothers of young children in Sussex County. The Healthy Families program gives mothers have the opportunity to meet regularly with other women in similar circumstances by attending monthly Mommy Parties held at Project Self-Sufficiency. Participants receive valuable information about household safety, parenting, health and wellness, and other topics while enjoying lunch and engaging in craft projects with their children. While on site, mothers can also take advantage of the other programs and services available to families at the agency. Transportation to the monthly gatherings is available to women in need.
To enroll in the Healthy Families program, or to find out more about the other programs and services available to families at Project Self-Sufficiency, call 973-940-3500.
