This free program is designed to meet the individual needs of each participant to ensure that every baby has a healthy start.
Healthy Start offers a variety of services at no charge:
Pregnant women, infants, and families with young children Under the age of 3.
Say YES to prenatal risk screening!
Healthcare providers are required by Florida law to offer the Healthy Start Prenatal Risk Screens to all pregnant women on their first prenatal visit and to newborns at the hospital or birth center. If you are not offered the Healthy Start prenatal risk screen — ask for it! If the screen shows you or your baby could benefit from Healthy Start services, a Healthy Start Home Visitor will contact you. Even if your pregnancy does not qualify as high risk, you can ask to be referred or refer yourself on our website by filling out a form on our Connect Page.
