Program Description

HIPPY is a Home Intervention Program for Parents of Pre-School aged Youngsters. Home Visitors work 1-on-1 with parents to review and role-play weekly education and activity packets that the parent then completes with their child. The evidence-based program helps children increase their school readiness and helps parents become familiar with education terms and the education system. HIPPY also hosts regular Group Meetings for HIPPY parents to socialize and access community resources.
