Healthy Families is a home-based parenting program

Speaker, author, podcaster, Sue Donaldson and her husband, Mark, have raised three daughters who keep them at the bank and on their knees. Sue loves connecting people to one another, to God, and to His Word, and has been speaking for the last 20 years or so with long pauses for babies, diapers and soccer pasta parties. who serves young parents between the ages of 12 and 24 in Benton County. To enroll in the program the mother must be pregnant or have a child 3 months of age or under. Families can stay in the program until the child is 3 years old.

Along with support, Healthy Families provides developmental screenings, nutrition information and a judgment free zone for all parenting questions. Weekly visits with each family include resources, such as diapers, household essentials and toys. Monthly group events offer a community for families and a chance to explore new experiences. The organization helps families connect to existing community resources and empower them to achieve their goals.
