Parenting? Partner with us!

In South County,  informal parent-child playgroups, school-readiness programs and parent support programs provide connections for families and with CHP resource.

Also in South County, CHP administers the WIC nutrition program for pregnant moms, and parents with young children. WIC clients can benefit from CHP prenatal education, breastfeeding support, and postpartum groups. If we can’t help, we know who can.

Need food assistance? It’s OK to ask for help.

CHP Family Services knows that healthy family nutrition can sometimes be a challenge. That’s why CHP offers a number of free food security programs to both CHP patients and the wider community.

Among these are our Food for All program and our monthly free Food Banks in Great Barrington and Dalton,  a collaboration with the Food Bank of Western Massachusetts.

All of our Family Services programs are free and open to all.
