Horry County

PASOs Horry County began in March 2021 in collaboration with Horry County First Steps. Trained on early childhood development, Promotores in Horry County facilitate the Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) to determine if a child under five years old is at risk for developmental delays and provide families with referrals to early intervention specialists for further assessment and supports, as needed. The Promotores also provide information and tools to parents about how to help children reach their developmental milestones, as well as early literacy and community resources so that young Latino children are well prepared for kindergarten. Promotores also connect local families with a variety of health and social services through the PASOs Health Connections Program.
