New Family Home Visits Initiative

The New Family Home Visits Initiative offers support, services and referrals to new and expectant parents. Through this initiative, a trained health worker — such as a nurse, doula or community health worker — makes in-person or virtual visits to the home of a parent who is pregnant or has an infant or young child.

Eligibility

Participating programs focus on providing services to families residing in Taskforce on Racial Inclusion & Equity (TRIE) neighborhoods, public housing, and families receiving support from the Administration for Children’s Services. However, the eligibility criteria for each program are different. For more information on eligibility about participating programs, visit:

  • Citywide Doula Initiative: Get no-cost home visits and support during labor and birth from a trained doula.
  • Newborn Home Visiting Program: Find non-medical support before, during and after childbirth. 
  • NYC Nurse-Family Partnership: Get your own personal nurse to support you to have a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby.

To check if you are eligible, call 311 or 347-396-7979. For the CDI, call 844-653-6852.
