Crisis Nursery Outreach Office Helps Local Families

The St. Louis Crisis Nursery Outreach Center at Mercy Hospital Jefferson provides families with a free, in-home support program focusing on parenting education, building coping skills, and linking families to resources in the community.

Assistance with basic need items is available. The St. Louis Crisis Nursery also offers free crisis care at five nursery locations in the St. Louis region for children up to age 12.

Do you know a family with children under 12 that may need assistance? The Jefferson Outreach Center provides one-on-one education or counseling, home visits, links to parenting and other community resources, parenting education groups, and has basic needs items available.

The services are voluntary and confidential. If you know someone in need call Jessica Boehm at 314-374-1700 or the 24-hour helpline at 314-768-3201.
