Services Provided: The Central District Health Department
(CDHD) is pleased to announce a new program
that will be starting soon. It is called
Parents As Teachers. The early childhood
home visiting program helps to build strong
communities, thriving families and children
who are healthy, safe and ready to learn.
The home visiting staff will work with parents
who want to learn additional ways to interact
with their child using activities geared to the
child’s development.
Parents As Teachers has been used
nationwide for 30 years and has been
found to meet four primary goals:
• Increased parent knowledge of early
childhood development and enhanced
parenting practices.
• Early detection of developmental delays
and health issues.
• Prevention of child abuse and neglect.
• Increase in children’s school readiness
and school success.
Families can sign up for the program while
mom is still pregnant or anytime through
age three. There is no cost for participation,
only your commitment. Parenthood is as
challenging as it is fun and we all want our
children to grow and thrive. We are here to
provide support, screening, and connections
with other parents and community resources.

URL: http://www.wocaonline.org
Eligibility: All Eligible
Services Provided: The Women of Color Alliance honors cultural diversity through mutual support, leadership development and empowerment. It is our mission to work toward a fair social, political, and economic system to improve the quality of life for all Women of Color.
The vision of the Women of Color Alliance (WOCA) grew out of conversations dating back to 1998 among Latina, Native American, African American, and Asian women. At first, the focus was simply to find ways of supporting each other in a conservative state. Public policy makers in Idaho have a reputation for discounting the importance of people of color, particularly women of color.
Becoming a partner with WOCA means you wish to future the cause for women just like you. You will meet amazing women and men who have already begun and are willing to support those others who look and sound like you.
Anyone is welcome to come to our office to share, be supported, volunteer, or get involved in any other way of your choice to give back to those others who look and sound like you.
