Summary The Department of Public Health has an opening for a Public Health Nurse (PHN) to join our Nurse-Family Partnership (NFP) Team at the Kent Public Health clinic. Nurse-Family Partnership is a community health program that partners a person pregnant with their first child with a registered nurse. The nurse provides home or community visits from pregnancy through the child's second birthday.

Through this transformative and challenging life phase, our nurses offer the support, information, and resources their clients desire as they build the lives they want for themselves and their children. Components of the program include a provision of home visiting services to a caseload of 25 families per PHN, engagement in weekly reflective supervision sessions, and participation in weekly team meetings. Commitment To Equity and Social Justice: Named after Dr.

Martin Luther King, Jr., one of the most influential civil rights leaders in our nation's history, King County is a vibrant international community with residents that represent countries from around the world. It is a region with increasing diversity that cherishes the traditions of many cultures. The county government has a deep commitment to equity and social justice and advancing practices, strategies, and policies that promote fairness, justice, and opportunity for all - in our workplaces and our communities

With this commitment, King County has adopted a pro-equity agenda to advance regional change and ensure that residents from all communities are incorporated into our emergency planning and public outreach efforts. We recognize that structural racism consists of principles and practices that cause and justify an inequitable distribution of rights, opportunities, and experiences across racial groups. Since declaring Racism is a Public Health Crisis in June 2020, King County and Public Health committed to being intentionally anti-racist and accountable to Black, Indigenous and People of Color communities.
