Connections began in 1993 as a community-based home visiting program. Shortly thereafter with feedback from participants, we recognized the need for group and prenatal support. Today we offer a continuum of prenatal, postnatal, and preschool services to families in Lanark County.

What Do We Do ...

• Operate several community programs: Birth Companion , Good Food for a Healthy Baby, Home Visiting and Parent & Children's Groups.
• Help parents improve their capacity to raise healthy children.
• Increase the participation of vulnerable families in the community
• Promote partnerships and collaboration among service providers to improve access and quality of service to vulnerable families

What Makes Us Unique...

• Our programs offer not only a variety of support, but a progression of support.
• Participation is voluntary. Parents choose what programs and activities in which they want to be involved.
• Our programs are focused on prevention. Parents seek out information and assistance before they are in crisis.
• Our programs are parent-directed. Parents expertise is recognized then strengthened and supported.
• Our programs are flexible to both the individual and to the needs identified in a particular community.
