In August, we were thrilled to welcome Congressman Wenstrup to a roundtable with our Nurse-Family Partnership Nurse Home Visitors. Our dedicated nurses shared more about how they work with families to develop parenting skills, improve the health of moms and babies, and create stimulating and nurturing home environments. They also help link families to other community supports like housing, transportation, Medicaid, and more. Our ECS NFP moms shared how participating in the program has changed their lives. We know the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted so much of our lives, and Congressman Wenstrup was also able to hear from nurses and families about the successful use of virtual visits.

After 21 years of dedication, Every Child Succeeds’ founding president, Judith Van Ginkel, Ph.D., is retiring. ECS has supported more than 27,000 families throughout Southwestern Ohio and Northern Kentucky, helping them to create nurturing, healthy home environments.
