Affiliate Families - what????
All part time pe's should have 3 and full time 6. We want to work towards meeting the following will all affiliate families:
An Affiliate Family is the family that:
- Parent educators complete and document a family-centered assessment within 90 days of enrollment and then at least annually thereafter (MAFA)
- Child health screening is completed by 7 months of age, or within 90 days of enrollment, and at least annually thereafter.
- Child developmental screening takes place for all children within 90 days of enrollment or birth, and then at least annually thereafter.
- Parent educators develop and document goals with each family they serve. Families that received at least one personal visit had at least one documented goal during the program year.
- Families with one or fewer stressors receive at least 12 personal visits annually and families with two or more stressors receive at least 24 personal visits annually
- Parent educators connect families to resources that help them reach their goals and address their needs. Families that received at least one personal visit were connected by their parent educator to at least one community resource in the program year.
- Milestone are completed after each visit.
Please look over your families that you have listed as your affiliate families. If you feel you can't make these with the families you have selected, let's talk.
Remember, this is not your highest of high needs families; these are the families that you feel will keep their appointments and you can meet all the requirements.
