Texas Parents as Teachers

PAT provides parents with child development knowledge, screens for developmental and health issues, prevents child abuse, and increases school readiness.

Congress approved a Continuing Resolution on Friday that includes an extension to the #MIECHV program until December 16. Please reach out to your MOC and ask them to cosponsor HR8876, the bill to reauthorize the program. #homevisitingworks

Take advantage of the warm weather! Outdoor play is an important part of childhood. Try encouraging your child to run around the park, dig and dump sand in the sandbox, or climb up and going down the slide. #parenting #homevisiting

Trouble at bedtime? Do the same routine every night, at the same time. You might begin with a bath and brushing teeth, read two books, and then turn out the light for bed. #homevisiting #parenting
