Washington County

By hfocoalition

We only serve this one county, but we have a lot of families. Our county highly values collaboration and partnerships – seeking to enhance each family’s experiences through mutual support rather than programmatic competition. As such, families come to our HF program through our universal screening & eligibility team – Help Me Grow at Community Action. After families get screened, they can get home visiting through one of our local teams under LifeWorks NW and Community Action. About half the families we serve speak Spanish, but the Washington County population is very diverse, so we also work with families who speak many other languages (there are approximately 150 languages spoken in homes across Washington County). We currently have 14 Family Support Specialists providing Healthy Families program services.
