Spotlight on Poverty, Part 3: Home Visiting Supports Families Where They Need It Most

Reach Out and Read

How can families help prepare their children for school when they’re working multiple jobs, or struggling to buy groceries?

Jennifer Bronsdon and Emily Callahan of Parents as Teachers at MGH Revere join us to talk about what home visiting is, what it isn't, and how these programs meet families in their reality - at their homes.
