Twin Cities Healthy Start
Twin Cities Healthy Start is a community-based project that can help you have a healthy pregnancy and a healthy family.
Too many babies die before they are born or before their first birthday. This is a special concern in the African American and American Indian communities. Together we can take steps to prevent this from happening. Twin Cities Healthy Start will connect you with agencies and programs to help you and your baby.
Twin Cities Healthy Start offers lots of benefits and services
- Nutrition and health education
- Referral to help with drug and alcohol problems
- Help with decisions about your future
- Educational opportunities
- Job readiness skills
- Family planning referrals
- Stress reduction techniques
- Help with domestic violence issues
- An opportunity to participate with a group to help make the project effective
