Follow Along Program 11 Results

The Follow Along Program is a free service that supports families with babies and young children as they grow and learn. Local public health teams send families a form every few months with questions about their child’s progress. Once the form is returned, families receive fun activities to do with their child to help them explore and learn through play. Public health staff are also available to answer questions and connect families with resources and services, if needed.
