Parenting didn't come with a manual, but Broward families have the next best thing. Our Help Me Grow Broward program connects you with a Care Coordinator who helps you check your child’s milestones (Birth to Age 8) and finds you free activities and resources.

How the Process Works:

Step 1: Connect. Parents complete a quick, one-page intake form on our website to request a call.

Step 2: The Screening A Care Coordinator will reach out within 48 hours. We can guide the parent through the brief screening (approx.. 15 minutes) right over the phone or schedule a callback time that fits their busy schedule.

Step 3: Free Resources. Once the screening is complete, the family receives customized parenting tips, fun learning activities, or referrals to specialized local support services if needed.
