Families FIRST Program

The idea for Families FIRST was developed and piloted for a period of years in response to the health challenges faced by New Mexico families during pregnancy and into early childhood. It is offered as a Medicaid-covered service through Lovelace or Molina Salud at no cost to families. The program has proven effective in improving the health of pregnant women and their babies.

The SJC Family Resource Center Families FIRST provides:
  • Assistance with Medicaid applications for children and pregnant women
  • Care coordination services as determined by families (Salud Managed Care Organization)
  • Ages and Stages Questionaire (developmental screening for children)
  • Collaboration with other community resources and services
  • Home visits focused on prenatal wellness and child health
What Is Care Coordination?

Care coordination supports families in staying connected with their health care providers and in accessing other community resources.

Who Is Eligible?
  • Medicaid or Medicaid eligible pregnant women
  • Newborns covered by Lovelace or Molina Salud.
