Home Visiting with Early On
Early On is a program that helps families with children ages 0-3 who may need extra developmental support. Our team of Early Childhood experts goes into family homes to provide individualized strategies to promote early learning. Research shows the earlier we begin helping children who may have developmental delays, the more likely they are to be on track by the time they enter school. Check out this Early On Home Visiting Video that shows just a snippet of how our amazing team works with families every day. #InghamImpact
