Did you know you can receive FREE encouragement, information and support from a trained home visitor?
South Region Parents as Teachers wishes you and your family well during these challenging times. We are here for you by providing in-person, video-conference and/ or tele-communication personal visits. All in-person visits are subject to follow public health guidelines such as daily Covid-19 screening, use of PPE such as masks and maintaining physical distancing. We are all aware the current situation is stressful, but we also know having positive routines and rituals can help us manage better during times of stress! As such, we are committed to continuing to be here to help you and your family by providing you with personalized, custom supports and information through a combination of these different formats. Virtual, phone and in-person visits have this in common: you and your child(ren) enjoy some one-on-one activity time, you and your home visitor discuss developmental topics, parenting celebrations and challenges, and you will have a chance to reflect on your child's development. Plus, at every visit, we help you learn about protective factors which help all families be strong and resilient in good times and in tough times. South Region Parents as Teachers serves the City of Lethbridge and rural communities across Southwestern Alberta such as Bow Island, Taber, Milk River, Coaldale, Nobleford, Fort Macleod, Raymond, Cardston, Pincher Creek and the Crowsnest Pass! First Nations families in Lethbridge may be interested in receiving support from our Indigenous-supporting home visitor! Call 403-320-5983 for more information on Parents as Teachers home visiting. Research shows that there are Protective and "Promotive" Factors that build on your family's strengths and promote your child's development. At every Parents as Teachers personal visit, we help you strengthen and build protective factors to keep you, your child and your family healthy, strong and resilient. See the info below and call 403-320-5983 for more information or to register. |
