**About AIWCC**

The Alberta Immigrant Women & Children Centre is a registered charitable organization in Edmonton, Alberta. AIWCC assists and provides support to women and children in need. AIWCC recognizes, responds to, and focuses on the specific concerns of immigrant and refugee women and their families. AIWCC’s uniqueness is based on having a gender-related mandate, which has proven best practices in developing customized female-focused initiatives. These initiatives often include children, family, and community well-being as important outcomes of our engagement as we know that our clients live and work within interconnected social systems. Through community collaborations we create programs, promote opportunities, and build connections to support healthy and vibrant communities.

The HIPPY (Home Instruction for Parents of Preschool Youngsters) program provides parents of preschoolers with skills and resources to teach and prepare their children for school. Home Visitors who are the heart and soul of the program, visit parents in their homes to teach them the HIPPY curriculum once every week. In turn, the parent will teach that curriculum to their prepscholar for 15 minutes daily, 5 days a week.

A parent’s ability to teach the curriculum to their child depends on the Home Visitor’s ability to teach and support the parent.
