Promoting Healthy Parents & Healthy Babies

Caring Hands Closet welcomes all pregnant women and/or parents of children up to age three to our community education program.

Our goal is to support & encourage young families to improve their health & the health of their babies.

Caring Hands Closet is a fun way to earn rewards for taking care of yourself and your baby.

How Caring Hands Closet Works…
