purchases a book for young child age 0 to 8 years. Books are distributed to parents, guardians and grandparents of vulnerable infants and toddlers and teenage moms and dads. We read with them first, and then leave the book for them to keep |

purchases a book for a teen parent on parenting, infant care, or budgeting
A gift of books for teen parents is an important one. Parents model the habit of reading for their children and they help teen moms and dads to establish goals that will lead to a stronger healthier future for themselves and their children. |

purchases round trip transportation for a rural mom and baby to the OBGYN or pediatrician’s office
What difference can a ride make? Families want to give their children the best start in life, but often lack the ability to do so. A ride to preventative health care supports children at the earliest stages of growth and development -- benefits that will last a lifetime. |

When it comes to growing and changing infants and toddlers, the questions just can’t wait! Parenting support provided in the home helps parents learn simple, free ways to support their child’s physical, social and emotional growth. |
