Raising Families is an inter-professional program, originally funded by a grant from the Healthcare Foundation of New Jersey. The initial program pilot was divided into three phases: Cohort 1 (summer 2023), Cohort 2 (Fall 2023), & Cohort 3 (Spring 2024). The focus of the Raising Families Project is to enhance child development, build parental efficacy, and increase professionals' capacity to meet the needs of this population.
