 What is Nurse-Family Partnership (NFP)?

Nurse-Family Partnership is a free home visiting program that partners nurses with first-time moms early in their pregnancy. A free Registered Nurse can give you the support, advice and information you need as a new mom. Your nurse will support you to:

• Have a healthy pregnancy
• Prepare for the birth of your child
• Learn and practice things that make you a more confident mom. This can include breastfeeding, nutrition, child development, safe-sleep techniques and much more.
• Understand child health and development
• Continue to pursue your future goals
• Access community resources

Who is eligible for NFP?

• First-time moms who are less than 28 weeks pregnant
• Eligible for Medi-Cal or WIC

How can a woman access NFP services?

Anyone can refer a woman to NFP. Women who meet the eligibility requirements can refer themselves (self-referral), or their prenatal and healthcare providers may refer them to the program by:

• Calling 530-225-5394
• Faxing a completed referral form to 530-225-5494

Following the referral, pregnant women will be screened and assessed for NFP eligibility. If a woman is not eligible for NFP, she will be offered information on other home visiting and supportive services in Shasta County.
