Members work directly with the community based programs through the Family Health Centers at NYU Langone.

ParentChild+ Placement: The Member will provide health education, early literacy support, and child development guidance to families with limited English-speaking abilities. Services will include home visits twice a week to families with at least one child between the ages of 16 months and three years old. On the first visit of each week, the Member brings a carefully-selected book or educational toy and the curricular material for the week, which is a gift to the family. In the home sessions with the parent (or other primary caregiver) and the child, the Member will model positive verbal interaction, reading, and play activities, demonstrating how to use the books and toys to build language and emergent literacy skills to promote school readiness.
