ONTARIO – The Treasure Valley Children’s Relief Nursery is offering home visits to families within Malheur County.
“We want to keep young children at risk for maltreatment safe and isolation can be a risk factor for abuse or neglect,” the nursery’s executive director Kathie Collins wrote in an email.
The home visits are funded by a grant from the Oregon Community Foundation.
The goal is to provide parents with child rearing knowledge and parenting support.
“Each home visit is tailored to fit a child’s age and stage of development,” said . . .
