Congratulations to Christina O’Leary, one of the 2026 Parents as Teachers Parent Educators of the Year!

As a bilingual family support specialist with Family Lifeline, Christina works alongside families to navigate resources and pursue their education and employment goals. During her four years as a home visitor, her support has contributed to 26 successful connections to employment, while six families have returned to or enrolled in school.

Christina says she is most proud of the long-term partnerships she has formed with families and the trust they have built together.

Join us in celebrating Christina and her commitment to creating pathways toward lasting family stability at PATCON26 in Portland, Oregon.

For families who breastfeed, the support of community and social service providers can make a real difference.

From lactation strategies and insurance and advocacy information to mental health care and more, connecting families to the right resources at the right time can impact the health of both moms and babies.

This National Breastfeeding Month, learn more about the critical role we can play through "Promoting Healthy Outcomes During Pregnancy and Beyond: The Role of Community and Social Service Providers."

Co-authored by Parents as Teachers National Center and Brazelton Touchpoints Center, this field resource is moving, practical, and hopeful for any team concerned about maternal and infant health in their communities. Grab your copy at the link below.
