As an Early Learning Specialist, Cindy performs twice-a-week home visits, where she provides educational books and toys for parents to help their children get a head start on their learning and get them prepared for Pre-K. The Growing Up Healthy team also provides wraparound support for families.

Cindy’s favorite aspect of her role is learning about all the different programs Growing Up Healthy can help people with, and making connections with community members and families.

Fun fact: Cindy and her family have four dogs!
