The foundation of the FBP is the belief that a resilient family, beginning with a healthy, low-risk pregnancy, is the most effective and efficient unit for building a healthy and competent society.
 

 

We utilize the First Born^® Program (FBP), created by Vicki Johnson in SilverCity, as our primary intervention for children 0 – 3.

 

Weekly home visitation services may begin any time during pregnancy or right after the birth of a family’s first child and continue until the child is three years of age.

 

Book Clubs provide support for early literacy and a social support network for families.

 

The county-wide implementation of the First Born^® Program in Santa Fe is a joint undertaking of United Way of Santa Fe County and Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center.
