what is BOOST?

The BOOST program provides home visiting services to infants and toddlers ages birth to 3 years.  

The BOOST program's primary focus is supporting the child’s social emotional growth along with supporting the entire family. BOOST specifically targets healthy emotional development through Infant Mental Health services. Infant Mental Health focuses on the relationship between infant and caregiver. 

Services are provided by an Infant Mental Health Specialist at a frequency determined by the caregiver. A simple family plan is written which outlines the family and/or developmental concerns indicated by an initial screening.

Services for this program are free to families and made possible through funding provided by generous donors and foundations.

  • Parenting Classes

  • Developmental Screenings

  • Caregiver Support Groups

  • Connection

  • Support During Transitions

  • In-Home Support

BOOST connects the family to various resources offered within the community. Community resources may include Early Head Start programs, community activities and events, and clothing/food bank programs. 

Services for the BOOST Program are free to families and made possible through funding provided by generous donors and foundations.
