Sign Up for Home Visits, Get a $50 Gift Card

Parents of infants and toddlers, or those who are pregnant with their first child, are invited to receive advice and support from a certified nurse or professional home visitor through Project Self-Sufficiency. The agency offers a range of home visitation programs to income-eligible families in Sussex, Warren and Hunterdon counties. The programs are free, voluntary and confidential. Those who register prior to June 30th and complete their first home visit can receive a $50 Shop Rite gift card.

Participants in the agency’s home visitation programs receive free parenting tips, baby items, information about childhood health, and other topics from certified nurses or professional home visitors. The programs combine home visits with educational outings for mother and child to help parents boost literacy levels, address health issues, and help prevent potential developmental delays. Women who are pregnant or parenting infants, as well as those with children up to the age of three are eligible.

Mothers also have the opportunity to meet regularly with other women in similar circumstances by attending monthly gatherings held at Project Self-Sufficiency. Participants receive the latest information about household safety, parenting, health and wellness, and other topics, while enjoying lunch and engaging in craft projects with their children. While on site, mothers can also take advantage of the other programs and services available to families at the agency. Transportation to the monthly meetings is available to women in need.

Project Self-Sufficiency’s home visitation services are available to income-eligible residents of Sussex, Hunterdon and northern Warren Counties.
