More than a Prenatal Home Visiting Curriculum: How the FSU Partners for a Healthy Baby Curriculum Supports EHS Family Engagement

The FSU Partners for a Healthy Baby curriculum is the most widely utilized maternal health curriculum in Early Head Start programs serving pregnant women. It ranks among the top three home-based curricula for Early Head Start. However, many programs that use only the prenatal content or only use it in their home-based option don’t realize how many other ways the Partners curriculum can support family engagement.

In this webinar, we will explore ideas for maximizing the value of your Partners subscription by integrating Partners materials into other service areas and options. From recruitment to transition, the easy-to-navigate digital format and parent-friendly Partners handouts make it easy for family services, early education, and health staff to provide individualized support and information to families on a wide array of topics.

1:00-2:00 pm EDT.
