A NEW PROGRAM GREW OUT OF THE MENTORING PROGRAM:
"EARN WHILE YOU LEARN"
Pregnancy and parenting are filled with lots of uncertainty. This
program helps to answer many of the questions our clients have and ease
their anxiety. Many people want to learn how to be good parents and
raise a healthy, happy child. The center staff is available to provide
support and resources during this time of transition and change. The
lessons are fun, interesting and practical.
As a part of our Earn While You Learn Parenting Program, our clients are
given an opportunity to earn credits that they can use to 'purchase' new
infant clothing and items.
At our center we provide our clients with
an opportunity to learn how to be the best parent they can be. Earn
While You Learn will help them to understand what to expect in pregnancy
and beyond.
Through regular lessons that include videos and worksheets, they will
learn important and interesting information about their pregnancy and
their baby. There are a number of topics to choose from and our staff
will put together a lesson plan that is unique to their needs. And best
of all, they will work with a volunteer who will be able to help them
better understand the challenges and joys that lie ahead for them and
their baby.
