What Is Help Me Grow?

Help Me Grow Oregon is a FREE family support line that serves families with children starting from pregnancy through age 5. We connect Oregon children and their families to community services and resources related to basic needs, child health, behavior, development and learning.

Help Me Grow acts as the bridge to connect families to providers, referrals, and existing resources. We strive to identify and address barriers so families can receive information and resources that support their children’s growth.

We are the early childhood specialist team of Swindells Resource Center. Help Me Grow serves families with children prenatal through age 5 and Swindells serves families with children age 6 through transition into adulthood. Together we provide a continuum of care for families prenatal through adulthood. To reach either team, fill out our contact us form or give us a call and we will connect you to the appropriate team. You are in good hands.

Our resource navigators are here to support you.  If you are a parent, health care provider or community service provider, let us help you get the resources your family needs, when you need them. We believe all children should be able to grow, develop, and thrive to reach their full potential.

Help Me Grow connects families with:

  • Parent was concerned about his child's development. In the past the child did not meet the criteria for Early Intervention. I encouraged and assisted the parent in resubmitting the referral. At the appointment they evaluated him, and their son now qualifies for Early Intervention. Parent said, "All because of You."

Four key components characterize the Help Me Grow model:

Our Centralized Access Point assists families and professionals in connecting children to community resources that help them thrive.


Family & Community Outreach builds parent and provider understanding of healthy child development, supportive services available to families in the community, and how both are important to improving children’s outcomes.


To make sure resources are working together effectively, Data Collection & Analysis supports evaluation, helps identify systemic gaps, bolters advocacy efforts, and guides quality improvement.


When potential concerns are spotted early on, they can be easier to address. Child Health Care Provider Outreach supports early detection and intervention efforts and connects medical providers to community resources to best support families.

Help Me Grow Oregon is a part of the Help Me Grow National Center.
