This United Way of Central Jersey program implements a national model that consists of low-income, first-time mothers who receive a regular, in-home visit from a specially trained nurse. Research results indicate reductions in child abuse/neglect, mother arrests and increases in the period between first and second child among other results.

Please contact us for more information on how you can support efforts to improve conditions among low-income children during the crucial early years.
