Resources for Imperial County Parents
 

Each family is unique and is responsible for choosing parenting tools that meet its own needs and circumstances. There is no “one size fits all” approach to parenting.  The following local resources are unique to families with children 0 to 5 years old that reside in the Imperial County.  Please contact the agency to receive more information about their program.
