Programs
Nurturing Families works with social workers and case workers at local organizations to assist them in meeting their clients’ needs. While these are the primary programs we currently provide, please reach out to us with other requests as we may be able to find you the help you need.
Fairfax County Coordinated Services Planning (703-222-0880) is a great resource for any individual seeking direct help.

Past Program — Car Seats
From 2008–2011 Nurturing Families partnered with the Virginia Health Department to distribute free, new car seats to 1,000+ children and offered child passenger safety classes to help parents learn how to install and use the seats correctly. More info here.
In 2011 Nurturing Families collaborated with Fairfax County Health Department to phase out our participation as a LISSDEP partner agency and to help the Health Department establish their own car seat distribution program, the Low-Income Child Safety Seat Distribution and Education Program. Parents, foster parents or legal guardians of a child aged 7 or younger, or pregnant women in their third trimester may be eligible to receive a free child safety seat. To find out if you qualify for the program, call 703-246-8850, TTY 711.
In 2011 Nurturing Families also donated a new, full-size demo vehicle seat to Inova Fairfax Women and Children’s Hospital for use in teaching new parents the proper use and installation of car seats.
“I just want to let you know how much we use and appreciate the auto demo seat you donated to us. Believe me, we use it each and every day. I am confident it has been a great influence in the safety of so many.”
