Promotion of the health-related services of parent-child centers

The funding of the health-related offerings of the Parent-Child Centers in Tyrol supports non-profit organizations and public institutions in expanding their course programs related to childbirth and early parenthood. With a focus on childbirth preparation, prenatal gymnastics, breastfeeding groups, and baby massage, a comprehensive range is offered that accompanies expectant and new parents as well as their babies in their health development. Through the annual grant, institutions in Tyrol can design needs-based offerings and establish a sustainably effective network for health promotion, strictly adhering to the guidelines of the funding directive of the Department of Public Health of the State of Tyrol.

Applications can be submitted at any time, provided that a Parent-Child Center is operated in Tyrol and a health-related course offering is provided. The funding measure prioritizes projects that pursue a holistic approach and are oriented towards the life stages of pregnant women and young families. Through close cooperation with the Department of Public Health, professional standards and prevention goals are ensured. Interested institutions receive a grant that enables both the establishment of new courses and the expansion of existing groups. This continuous funding option contributes to strengthening prevention and health education and promotes the networking of all actors in the fields of health, labor & social affairs in Tyrol.
