Our DPH Home Visiting program supports moms and babies during pregnancy and after birth – from pregnancy through the baby’s first year – a time when guidance, care, and connection can make a real difference.

The program is also designed to help families early, before minor issues become serious challenges or complications.

Families do not need to be in crisis to qualify. Any high-risk pregnant woman or infant is eligible.

Are you seeing an increase in mosquitoes as you enjoy the beautiful summer weather?

We encourage you to practice the 5 Ds!

• 🌇Dusk/Dawn 🌅– Avoid dusk and dawn activities during the summer when mosquitoes are most active.
• 🧥Dress – Wear loose-fitting, long-sleeved shirts and pants to reduce the amount of exposed skin.
• 🦟DEET – Cover exposed skin with an insect repellent containing DEET, which is the most effective repellent against mosquito bites.
• 🪣Drain – Empty any containers holding standing water – buckets, barrels, flowerpots, tarps – because they are breeding grounds for virus-carrying mosquitoes.
• 🚪Doors – Make sure doors and windows are in good repair and fit tightly, and fix torn or damaged screens to keep mosquitoes out of the house.
