These services are provided in the home, virtually or other comfortable settings.

Circle of Security and Support Group

Grandparents and baby

Circle of Security Parenting Classes: 8-10 week courses are regularly scheduled. The goal of the classes is to improve a child's sense of security within a family, which research has shown leads to better self-esteem, better relationships, enhanced school readiness, and improved ability to cope with emotions. To register for Circle of Security Classes, please use this form. 

Kid and Man

Parenting Support Group:  Under the guidance of a professionally trained facilitator, support groups are also available to people who are enrolled in Circle of Security.

Both the classes and the support group are free and open to all parents in the Helena area. The focus is on families with children under age 8, but parents of older children are also welcome.

Asthma Home Visiting

Asthma kid

The Montana Asthma Program through LCPH helps individuals with a primary diagnosis of asthma in Lewis and Clark, Broadwater, and Jefferson counties control the disease rather than let it control them.

Trained nurses provide in-home and virtual visits to help reduce exposure to the things that trigger asthma attacks. The free program may be able to supply special bed covers, HEPA filters, medication advice, asthma educational materials, and referrals to community resources. More information on the Montana Asthma Program.

Finding the Mother in Me:  Support for women experiencing perinatal challenges

Our home visitors are trained in the identification of Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADS).  PMADS can cause emotional and physical difficulties that can make it hard to enjoy life and function well.  LCPH offers a support group specifically for new mothers.
