Hello!
I am creating a program to increase family resilience, reduce ACEs, and increase healthy attachment in families with children enrolled at an early childhood education center that serves predominantly low income/at risk families (Mainsprings Schools, in Austin TX). We are dedicated to a two-gen approach in supporting the families we serve. The new program will serve families prenatally through the two years of the child's life (mainly focusing on prenatal and the first year).
Though I am very early in the program development phase, I anticipate the program being a combination of psychoeducation, individual therapy, and group therapy/support groups as well as resource referrals to ensure all basic needs of the family are met. Once this program proves effective, we will share the program with any interested parties as our goal is to positively influence as many families as possible.
I have searched for similar programs/centers to ours and have not been able to find any (internet searches mostly lead to daycare advertisements). Please let me know if you are aware of [or even better: a part of] a similar program. I would love to be able to discuss what has worked and what did not work for you/the program.
Thank you for your time!
