Background Information:
The purpose of the Help Me Grow (HMG) Home Visiting Program is to provide voluntary, high-quality, evidence-based, and culturally responsive home visiting services to support the positive health, development, and well-being outcomes for pregnant and parenting women, families, and infants born into poverty. The HMG program aims to expand participant’s educational, economic, and financial capability opportunities to improve the likelihood that they will exit poverty.
This agreement is a renewal and is being brought before the Board of Supervisors after the commencement date due to delays related to department head changes at TCDOE and the acquisition of insurance requirements.
