Nurse-Family Partnership is a free, voluntary program that helps first-time moms-to-be. The program pairs them with specially trained nurses who visit regularly, starting early in the pregnancy and continuing until the child’s second birthday.

Pregnant moms get the care and support they need for a healthy pregnancy, while also building a strong relationship with a nurse. The nurse becomes a trusted guide, offering advice on everything from baby care to planning for a stable, secure future. Through this partnership, new moms gain confidence and the tools they need to give their babies a healthy start and create a stable, successful life for both of them.

You might be eligible for this program if you:

  • Are pregnant with your first child and sign up before 28 weeks of pregnancy.*
  • Meet the income requirements (only the mother’s income is considered).
  • Live in Colorado (other counties in Colorado also offer this program; you can check the NFP website for more details about participating counties).

*If there is space available, women who have already delivered and whose baby is less than one month old can also apply.
