- Providing screenings for perinatal parents and young children, and sharing results with your organization, when families provide consent
- Coordinating informational and community resources for families you refer
- Offering networking and training opportunities to strengthen community relationships and build the early childhood system
Referrals
Making a formal referral to Help Me Grow Utah is one of the most effective ways to ensure that a family will get the extra support and resources they need. By sending a referral, you are referring a family to receive:
- Regular follow up from a Parent Support Specialist, who will connect families to information and resources on child development, pregnancy, family support, and more.
- Access to screening tools for the developmental and social-emotional health of their child(ren) and emotional well-being of expectant or new parents.
To promote a more cohesive system, we “close the referral loop” on every family you refer. With parent permission, we can also keep you updated on our ongoing work with families you refer.
