We’re taking HIPPY into the community in Henry County!

Our home visitors will be out in Headland, Abbeville, and surrounding communities connecting with local businesses, schools, daycares, churches, and organizations that work with families.

We’re looking for community partners who can help us reach families with young children who may benefit from HIPPY. If you know a family who could use additional support with early learning, school readiness, and preparing their child for success, we would love to connect with them.

HIPPY is a completely free program for families in Henry, Dale, and Houston Counties.

We also want to hear from local businesses and organizations that serve families. We love building partnerships where we can refer families to trusted local resources, and in turn, our partners can help connect families with HIPPY.

If you’re in Headland, Abbeville, or anywhere in Henry County and would like to learn more, make a referral, or partner with us, please reach out. We’d love to hear from you!

Today our HIPPY team is out in the community for a recruitment day, visiting businesses, schools, daycares, and other organizations that serve families throughout Houston County.

We’re always looking to reconnect with community partners we’ve worked with before, but we’d also love to meet new businesses and organizations that work with families and young children.

HIPPY is a completely free home-based Kindergarten Readiness program for families in Houston, Dale, and Henry Counties. We work with parents to support their children’s early learning, school readiness, and development, and we rely heavily on our community partners to help us reach families who could benefit from the program.

If you are a business, school, daycare, or family-serving organization and know of a family who may be a good fit for HIPPY, we would love to hear from you. We’re also interested in connecting with businesses that would like to become a community partner.

Part of what makes these partnerships so valuable is that they work both ways. We want to help families find the resources they need, and when our families are looking for services that your business provides, we want to be able to connect them with the businesses and organizations we know and trust.

If you’d like to learn more about Saliba Center's HIPPY Program, make a referral, or talk with us about partnering with our program, please reach out. We’d love to connect with you.
