All parents benefit from this parent education program that provides month-by-month guidelines on what to expect as your child grows and develops. This will help parents give their children the best possible start in life. PACT offers PAT to the community, as well as to Decatur City high school students. Being a Parent is Hard Work
In the first few years, children learn more and at a faster pace than at any other time in life. You help shape your child's future through the kinds of experiences you provide. Your baby was born to learn, and as a parent you are your child's first and most important teacher.
Parents as Teachers is here to help you!
Parents as Teachers (PAT) is a parent education and family support program serving families throughout pregnancy until their child enters kindergarten, usually age 5.
Parents are supported by PAT-certified parent educators trained to translate scientific information on early brain development into specific when, what, how and why advice for families. By understanding what to expect during each stage of development, parents can easily capture the teachable moments in everyday life to enhance their child's language development, intellectual growth, social development and motor skills.
