The Nurse-Family
Partnership Program provides client centered nurse
based home visiting services to first-time, low income
and TANF eligible mothers residing in North, Northwest,
Lower Northeast and West Philadelphia neighborhoods.
The services are designed to:
- improve pregnancy outcomes by helping women practice
sound health -related behaviors, including obtaining
good prenatal care from their physicians, improving
diet, and reducing use of cigarettes, alcohol,
and illegal
drugs by improving their nutrition;
- improve child health and development by helping parents
provide more responsible and competent care for their
children; and
- improve the economic self-sufficiency of families
by helping parents develop a vision for their own future,
continue their education and find jobs.
