Parent-Child Home Program
The Parent-Child Home Program (PCHP) is a two-year proven family literacy and parenting program. As a home visiting program, families with children age two (by November of the year) are visited twice weekly for a total of 27 weeks that coincide with the typical school year. Each week a trained Home Visitor uses carefully selected books and toys to model for the parent and child verbal interaction and fun parenting techniques through reading and education play. The new book or toy remains with the family permanently. PCHP prepares children to enter school ready to learn and improves school success rates. It also strengthens parenting skills and creates a stronger parent-child bond and a more stable family unit through the increase of positive verbal interaction. For more information, contact Shelli Panebaker at (717) 633-3547.
Hanover Area Family & Youth Alliance
For parents with children ages 9-14, the Alliance sponsors programs in which families learn skills to strengthen family relationships.

The Participate And Learn Skills program (PALS), Students and Mentors Achieving Results Together Program (S.M.A.R.T.), and the Leadership and Resiliency Programs encourage youth to get involved with initiatives and help decrease negative behaviors in adolescence.
