90% of brain development happens before a child reaches age five. This is a very small window to make sure children have what they need to succeed later in life. A Family Place provides and facilitates prevention services, with the goal to increase family strengths and enhance child development.
Families with limited access to diapers have reported more difficulty with stress management, depression and general coping skills, all of which are proven to have negative effects on young children. Furthermore, children without an adequate diaper supply cannot attend early childhood classrooms or daycare, greatly reducing their caregivers ability to work.
In July of 2013, LCSNW through its early childhood program, A Family Place, was awarded the contract to operate the program in our first location in McMinnville. As part of the A Family Place program model, Healthy Families works in coordination with the Yamhill Early Learning Hub and its home visiting collaborative, βFamily COREβ (Coordinated 0-5 years Referral Exchange). Over the years additional programs were developed such as expanded free parent education classes, additional diaper banks open to the broader community, and our clothing closet. A Family Place opened a second location in Newberg in 2016.
