In Parents as Teachers

Are you expecting or have a child birth to 5 years old?
Parents as Teachers (PAT) is a FREE program that currently serves families in the Justus-Tiawah and Verdigris School Districts. Studies support that children and families who participate in Parents as Teachers programs
not only do better in school, but are also more successful throughout life.

Because your baby was born ready to learn we offer:
❖ Current information on how children grow and develop
❖ Activities and toys that will foster learning and nurture development
❖ Practical answers to your parenting questions
❖ Opportunities to meet other families in your community

What services will be provided?
❖ Personal Visits – A certified parent educator, trained in child development
and home visiting go to each family’s home twice a month. Visit times are flexible
so that all families can participate.
❖ Periodic Screenings – To assure parents that their child’s development is on
target or to identify any problems early so appropriate interventions can be found.
❖ Group Meetings and Activity Sessions – Are a fun way to interact with
other families in your community. This is a place to share ideas, express concerns
and obtain additional parenting information.
