New Parent Support Program (NPSP) is a voluntary program that assists military Families who are pregnant or have children from birth through age five years, understand the process of delivering a baby overseas, and adapt to parenthood in healthy and resilient ways. NPSP can help families cope with stress, isolation, deployment/post-deployment issues, and improve parenting skills.
The primary focus of NPSP is providing individualized home visitation services in the parent and child’s natural learning environment; however, services can occur in an office or community setting. Classes and groups are available, which provide information on pregnancy, nutrition, parenting newborns and toddlers, problem-solving and coping, discipline issues, social isolation, and military stressors.
Each NPSP Home Visitor has a Master's degree in Social Work or a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree and is licensed to practice Clinical Social Work, Marriage and Family Therapy, or Nursing in a US state.
Who is eligible for the New Parent Support Program?
All SOFA status families who are expecting a child or have a child under five years of age are eligible to participate free of charge.
