Individual Support

We offer individual support for parents and caregivers that focuses on self-sufficiency and education.

Offerings

Self-Sufficiency Support

Our self-sufficiency program provides voluntary home visitation services to parents and kinship caregivers. The program provides flexible one-on-one services to help participants make progress towards personal goals and access resources to meet identified needs.

Home Visiting Services

The Healthy Families America® (HFA) program serves low-income pregnant women, age 19 and older, living in Douglas County. Our Teen & Young Parent program is a teenage pregnancy program & service that serves pregnant and parenting teens, and young adults ages 25 and younger, residing anywhere within the Omaha-metro area, including Bellevue and Council Bluffs.

Within our home visitation programs, a trained Family Resource Specialist (FRS) provides weekly home visits where parents learn about the development of their child, from before birth through their fifth birthday. The specialist will also support each family’s goals and connect them with resources in the community to meet their needs.

Nebraska Children’s Home Society is an affiliate of Healthy Families America® (HFA). HFA is the nationally-recognized, evidence-based home visiting program of Prevent Child Abuse America®
