2018 Home Visiting Symposium
Presented by Healthy Start Coalition of Manatee County, Inc.
On April 3rd, home visiting professionals from six community agencies convened for a day of professional development.
The participants explored innovative approaches to increase parent and caregiver enrollment and continued
participation in our local parenting programs. Participants also gained insight on how to better identify the drugendangered
children in our community, as well as practiced creative strategies to cope with the compassion fatigue that
often accompanies working with families in need.
“Quality, voluntary home visiting leads to fewer children in social welfare, mental health, and juvenile correction
systems, with considerable cost savings for states.”
