Philly SPROUT

Philly Supporting Parenting Relationships through Outreach Understanding and Training (Philly SPROUT) supports children in Philadelphia who may face a higher likelihood of developing serious emotional disturbance. The program, funded by a five-year grant from SAMHSA, is JJPI’s second collaboration with fellow PHMC affiliate National Nurse-Led Care Consortium (NNCC).

Through Philly SPROUT, JJPI provides:

• Infant and early childhood mental health treatment services to children in NNCC’s Nurse-Family Partnership and Mabel Morris Family Home Visit programs using several evidence-based parent-child psychotherapies
• Clinical consultation to NNCC nurse staff

NNCC leads an additional component of Philly SPROUT that focuses on providing training to infant and early childhood providers from across various disciplines, including early childhood education, mental health, and early intervention.

Referrals to Philly SPROUT are made directly through NNCC. If you are a participant in NNCC's Mabel Morris or Nurse Family Partnership programs and are interested in a referral to the program, please reach out to your assigned nurse home visitor.
