SUMMARY OF SERVICES
ORGANIZATION: Exceptional Parents Unlimited
SERVICES: CalWORKs Home Visitation Services
ADDRESS: 4440 N. First Street, Fresno, CA 93726
TELEPHONE: (559) 229-2000
CONTACT: Lowell Ens
EMAIL: lens@epuchildren.org
A. SERVICE DESCRIPTION
The CalWORKs Hove Visiting Program (HVP) is a program designed to support positive health,
development and well-being outcomes for pregnant and parenting women, families and infants
born into poverty. Exceptional Parents Unlimited, Inc. (SUBRECIPIENT) will use an evidence-
based, culturally competent, voluntary program model that pairs new parents with a trained
professional who makes regular visits to the participant's home to provide guidance, coaching,
access to prenatal and postnatal care, and other health and social services. This whole family
approach to service delivery will improve family engagement practices, support healthy
development of young children living in poverty and prepare parents for robust engagement in
Welfare-to-Work activities and employment.
SUBRECIPIENT will provide home visiting services through contracted Neighborhood Resource
Centers (NRCs) located in 93703, 93727, and 93612, utilizing the Parents as Teachers (PAT)
program model. The goals of PAT are to increase parent knowledge of early childhood
development and improve parenting practices, provide early detection of developmental delays
and health issues, preventing child abuse and neglect, and increase children's school readiness
and school success. The PAT curriculum, also named PAT, provides home visitor resources,
parent handouts and activities around child development, parenting behaviors, parent-child
interaction, development-centered parenting, and family well-being for families with children
aged 0-5.
B. TARGET POPULATION
To be eligible for home visiting services a participant must meet both of the following criteria:
A. The individual is one of the following:
• A member of a CaIWORKs assistance unit.
• The parent or caretaker relative for a child-only case.
• A pregnant individual who has applied for CalWORKs aid within 60 calendar
days prior to reaching the second trimester of pregnancy and would be eligible
for CaIWORKs aid other than not having reached the second trimester of
pregnancy.
• An individual who is apparently eligible for CaIWORKs aid.
Exhibit A
Page 2of5
B. The individual is pregnant or the individual is a parent or caretaker relative of a child less
than 24 months of age at the time the individual enrolls in the program.
Additional individuals not described above so long as the SUBRECIPIENT offers home visiting
to all individuals in the target population. Participation is voluntary for CalWORKs clients and
does not affect a family's application for aid or eligibility for any other CalWORKs benefits,
supports or services such as Welfare-to-Work.
The HVP target population is any family meeting the eligibility criteria above that resides in zip
codes 93703, 93702, 93710, 93720, 93718, 93727, 93612, 93611, and 93619, however, eligible
families outside of the stated zip codes can receive HVP services. Families will be referred to
HVP providers by DSS. If through their normal course of work a HVP provider believes a family
could benefit from, and is apparently eligible for, services a "reverse referral" will be sent to DSS
who will confirm client eligibility.
Anticipated Number of
Unduplicated Clients to be Served 186
Annually
C. STAFFING LEVELS
SUBRECIPIENT will maintain sufficient levels of qualified staff to effectively conduct all HVP
activities, consistent with the Budget Narrative detailed in Exhibit B, herein. Staffing must reflect
the diverse cultural and linguistic characteristics of the population served, and all staff must
have experience in connecting with families from diverse backgrounds, identifying family
strengths, navigating social systems for referral, and tracking client outcomes.
SUBRECIPIENT will be responsible for all training necessary to promote staff development
and/or effective service delivery. In addition, SUBRECIPIENT shall comply with any other
training required by DSS and shall also actively participate with other HVP providers for the

The PAT model recommends a full-time home visitor complete a minimum of 50 home visits per
month under the assumption that 2.5 hours on average are needed to plan, prepare, travel,
conduct the visit and complete the personal visit record.
PAT requires that one (1) supervisor be assigned to no more than twelve (12) home visitors to
supervise, regardless of full or part-time status. Each full-time home visitor is required to
participate in a minimum of two (2) hours of individual reflective supervision and a minimum of
two (2) hours of staff meetings per month. Home visitors working half time or less are required
to participate in a minimum of one (1) hour of reflective supervision and two (2) hours of staff
meetings per month.
D. SUBRECIPIENT's RESPONSIBILITIES
SUBRECIPIENT shall perform as follows:
1. All direct service and supervisory staff are to complete all evidence-based model and

NOTICE OF CHILD ABUSE REPORTING LAW
The undersigned hereby acknowledges that Penal Code section 11166 and the
contractual obligations between County of Fresno (COUNTY) and Exceptional Parents
Unlimited (PROVIDER) related to provision of CaIWORKs Home Visitation services
for COUNTY's dependent children, requires that the undersigned report all known or
suspected child abuse or neglect to one or more of the agencies set forth in Penal Code
(P.C.) section (§) 11165.9.
For purposes of the undersigned's child abuse reporting requirements, "child
abuse or neglect" includes physical injury inflicted by other than accidental means upon
a child by another person, sexual abuse as defined in P.C. §11165.1, neglect as defined
in P.C. §11165.2, willful cruelty or unjustifiable punishment as defined in P.C. §11165.3,
and unlawful corporal punishment or injury as defined in P.C. §11165.4.
A child abuse report shall be made whenever the undersigned, in his or her
professional capacity or within the scope of his or her employment, has knowledge of or
observes a child whom the undersigned knows or reasonably suspects has been the
victim of child abuse or neglect. (P.0 §11166.) The child abuse report shall be made to
any police department or sheriff's department (not including a school district police or
security department), or to any county welfare department, including Fresno County
Department of Social Services' 24 Hour CARELINE. (See PC §11165.9.)
For purposes of child abuse reporting, a "reasonable suspicion" means that it is
objectively reasonable for a person to entertain a suspicion, based upon facts that could
cause a reasonable person in a like position, drawing, when appropriate, on his or her
training and experience, to suspect child abuse or neglect. The pregnancy of a child
does not, in and of itself, constitute a basis for reasonable suspicion of sexual abuse.
(P.C. §11166(a)(1).)
Substantial penalties may be imposed for failure to comply with these child abuse
reporting requirements.
Further information and a copy of the law may be obtained from the department
head or designee.
I have read and understand the above statement and agree to comply with the
child abuse reporting requirements.
