Mental health problems among young children resulting from poor parenting, a high neonatal death rate in the county, and a low level of medical education in Bedford County, Pennsylvania provided the impetus for developing a primary prevention program called Expectant Parent Program. The first part of this article summarizes the development, content, staff, and funding of the Expectant Parent Program. The second half reviews some of the results of the evaluation by parents involved in the first year of the program. The article attempts to provide a model for education to increase the effectiveness of parenting, and describes a program developed in a rural county that may be duplicated in areas with similar mental health and medical problems
