In support of the Agency's mission, the Early Head Start (EHS) Home Visitor offers support, guidance, information, and child development services directly to families in their homes. The EHS Home Visitor uses the home environment to help parents create rich learning opportunities that build on everyday routines to support their child's development. The EHS Home Visitor provides support to families whose life circumstances might prevent them from participating in more structured settings, such as those who suffer severe stressors like maternal depression or substance abuse. The EHS Home Visitor provides weekly support to approximately 12 families. This position provides a major link between the Early Head Start program, the community, and the families it serves.
