Did you know? National Parents' Day is this Sunday, July 28.

Becoming a parent can be stressful — fortunately for Bullitt County residents, there's a resource available for you and your new bundle of joy. Enter: The HANDS program.

What's the goal?

HANDS is a free, voluntary, once-weekly home visitation program for new (and expectant) parents.

The process begins with a designated HANDS visitor discussing topics like pregnancy, developmental milestones, and home safety with you — from the comfort of your living room.

Families then receive tailored resources and home visitation to help support:

Healthy pregnancies and birth
Healthy child growth and development
Safe, healthy homes
Self-sufficient families

Pro tip: Follow along on Instagram for helpful hints (think: sun safety + seasonal activities).

Who can join?

Not a new parent quite yet? Enrollment is available during pregnancy or before your child turns three months old.

Consider this a friendly reminder to plan ahead — and thank us later. This program lends you a hand
