Parents as Teachers - Region 1 MIECHV

Parents as Teachers - Region 1 MIECHV in New Orleans, LA, is dedicated to enhancing the health and well-being of families through a no-cost, voluntary home visiting program. This initiative, part of the Louisiana Department of Health’s Bureau of Family Health, connects pregnant women and families with young children to registered nurses and parent educators who offer tailored support and coaching. Our professionals work directly in the families' homes or at their preferred locations, providing invaluable services such as health education, parenting skill development, personal goal-setting support, and connections to essential community resources. By participating in our program, families benefit from improved economic self-sufficiency, early detection of developmental delays, and enhanced overall child health and development, empowering them to thrive and achieve their unique aspirations.
