Abstract:
The focus of this study was to determine challenges and needs faced by families of migrant farm workers served by Rural Mission Migrant Head Start in the South Carolina Lowcountry. Data on common problems was collected via surveys, and results were analyzed. The Crecemos Juntos (We Grow Together) program was developed with the support of a Helping Hands Grant from the American Psychiatric Foundation, which funds service initiatives by medical students. A multimedia library of materials was compiled, addressing frequently encountered issues in mental health and child development. A presentation on effective positive disciplinary techniques was provided to parents.
