newborns. Our goal is to provide parents; from traditional families, single, or blended, families with
tools to enhance health and development, strengthen the bond between parent and child, and help
reduce the stress that sometimes comes with being a parent. Healthy Families participants will be
given the opportunity to have visits in their home and enjoy making fun, educational activities to
play with baby. Healthy Families also provides materials loaded with valuable information about
children's health and development. You do not have to be a first time parent to participate in
Healthy Families Arizona.
