Healthy Families / Healthy Children

Healthy Families/Healthy Children (HFHC) is a specially designed program offered by JFCS to help new and expectant parents strengthen their relationship and parenting skills.

Couples participate in the nationally recognized “Love’s Cradle”© educational and support group classes which focus on skills to:

• Raise a healthy and successful child through improved parenting skills
• Discover ways to renew intimacy and enhance mutual respect
• Strengthen your love, commitment and friendship
• Learn how to handle finances together

HFHC provides one-on-one family supportive services in the home to ensure the couples and family’s progress through greater access to community and financial resources.

All HFHC services are offered in English or Spanish.
