Home visitors have a wealth of knowledge about community resources and can connect families to the support they need, including housing, diapers, clothing, food, parenting classes, community events, and more, like the L.A. Care Health Plan and Blue Shield of California Promise Community Resource Centers (CommunityResourceCenterLA.org).

Watch this video to hear families share how these connections made a meaningful difference in their lives.

This project is funded in part by L.A. Care Health Plan and will benefit low-income and uninsured residents of Los Angeles County.

September is NICU Awareness Month! For one mother enrolled in the Welcome Baby program, motherhood began with uncertainty when her baby faced serious health complications and spent a month in the NICU.

With limited family support, her Parent Coach offered encouragement and connected her to resources supporting her baby’s development and well-being.

Her story reminds us: having someone in your corner can make all the difference.
