The FCH Healthy Families PSC2 will provide support to the program in a number of ways in collaboration with Parenting Now and the FCH leadership team:
Managing the Healthy Families contract and communications with our local subcontractor, Healthy Families Oregon state-level coordination with the Department of Early Learning and Care (DELC), and national-level coordination with Healthy Families America.
