Approval of Contract #72-038-1 will allow Contractor to continue the Nurse-Family
Partnership Program to provide home visits for first time mothers in Contra Costa County,

Quality of Life for Children and Families.” Expected program outcomes include better
pregnancy outcomes, improve the children’s health and development and help families
become economically self-sufficient by working with parents to develop a vision of their
own future, plan future pregnancies, continue their education, and find jobs.
