📝 Pop quiz: What happens when a community invests property tax dollars in kids for 20+ years? You get straight A's. Literally. Here's our report card:

📉 Teen birth rate: 27.9/1000 → 2.2/1000 ... A
📉 Juvenile delinquency: 109/1000 → 30.9/1000 ... A
📉 Infant mortality: 10.2/1000 → 3.3/1000 ... A
📉 Drop-out rate: 4.5% → 2% ... A
📉 Child maltreatment: 16.5/1000 → 3.8/1000 ... A

And the tuition? Less than $6/month per homeowner, with the millage rate actually DOWN 23% since 2021. 🎓💙

Turns out the Children's Services Council has been quietly acing it for three decades.

Did You Know? 💙

If you live in St. Lucie County, you may be eligible for a free, voluntary nurse home visit after the birth of your baby, even if you deliver at a hospital outside of St. Lucie County.

The Children's Services Council of St. Lucie County funds programs that provide support to local families during those important first weeks at home.

A nurse home visit can help you:
👶 Monitor your baby's growth and development
🩺 Answer questions about newborn care and feeding
💙 Support your physical and emotional recovery
🍼 Connect you with local resources and services
🏡 Give you confidence as you adjust to life with your newborn

These services are available to all St. Lucie County mothers and newborns, regardless of where the baby is born.

Every family deserves a healthy, supported start.
