CHIP CHIP is a non-profit organization that promotes a healthy community by supporting healthy children. Healthy communities start with healthy children.

CHIP provides services for children, prenatal through age six, in the focus areas of health improvement, reduction of child abuse and neglect, and school readiness. Our voluntary in-home visiting program teams a certified parent educator and a registered nurse with children and families to provide case management, home visitation, health assessments, parent support, education and referrals. Unsafe sleeping is the #1 cause of deaths for children from one week to one year of age. In response to this tragic loss of life CHIP created the SLEEPTIGHT campaign to provide an opportunity for any low-income parent in the region to attend a one hour safe-sleeping educational program and to receive a crib at no cost. CHIP also provides expecting mothers and children in Hampton Roads with health insurance enrollment assistance. We help every child have a healthy, loving start, so they enter school ready to learn and succeed. CHIP's major community annual fundraiser is the Hampton Roads Rubber Duck Race occurring the fourth Saturday in April. http://hamptonroadsduckrace.org/.

💜 **October is National Substance Abuse Prevention Month** 💜

At Sankofa Family Resource Center, we believe that prevention starts with **awareness, education, support, and knowing that you don’t have to face things alone.**

Substance use can affect individuals, families, and entire communities. Prevention isn’t about judgment—it’s about having honest conversations, recognizing the signs, knowing where to find help, and making sure people have the support they need.

Whether you’re struggling yourself, worried about someone you love, or simply need a safe person to talk to, **reaching out is a sign of strength—not weakness.** 💜

🌱 **Need someone to talk to?**
The **PEAKE Team** is here at Sankofa Family Resource Center **once a month** to provide a safe, supportive space for individuals and families who may need someone to listen, talk, or help connect them with resources.

📅 **Our next PEAKE Team visit is October 21!**

You don’t have to have all the answers. You don’t have to wait until things become a crisis. Sometimes, the first step is simply having a conversation.

💜 **Let’s talk. Let’s support one another. Let’s prevent substance use before it starts.**
