Healthy Families Suffolk

This home-visiting program in the Amityville,  Bay Shore, Brentwood, Central Islip, Copiague, Huntington, Huntington Station and Wyandanch communities offers services to expectant families and new parents with infants under the age of three months.

Participants are screened to identify risk factors and stressors that the family may face, and receive long-term, in-home services until the child is pre-school age or kindergarten ready. The program enhances family functioning by establishing a nurturing relationship, improving the family’s support system, teaching problem-solving skills, building positive parent-child interaction, and promoting healthy child growth and development.
