For 40 years, Home-Start Newark has observed deep social isolation in families with under-5s, exacerbated by limited resources. This leads to critical developmental delays in children, affecting speech, motor, and crucial social skills. Parental stress is heightened by a lack of support networks, hindering positive parenting and creating challenging home environments. These factors combine to create a vulnerable population needing targeted intervention, impacting children's future prospects.
Home-Start Newark leverages integrated services. Our Family Groups sessions offer structured play, fostering social and developmental skills, while home visits provide tailored support, linking families to vital services and aiding practical tasks. Early development programs boost school readiness. We build safe, supportive environments, empowering parents and fostering resilience, creating lasting positive changes.
