DeKalb County recently received a state grant that will pay for experts to visit the homes of at-risk children.
The $300,000 grant from the Governor’s Office for Children and Families will add 75 families to the state’s Maternal, Infant and Early Childhood Home Visiting program.
The program calls for specialists to intervene to help prevent child abuse and promote child development and school readiness. DeKalb will use its funds in the Clarkston and Scottdale areas.
