​About Help Me ConnectClick here to view a list of available outreach materials.
 Minnesota Help Me Connect helps expectant families, families with young children birth to 8 years of age, and those working with families find and connect to services in their local communities that support healthy child development and family well-being.
Help Me Connect was developed based on parent and community provider feedback. Beginning in 2012 a team of early childhood partners including state staff, tribal liaisons, and health care and education providers explored how to expand the state’s Help Me Grow system. Since then, the state has worked with community partners and care providers to create a new, partner website that connects families to the vast array of early childhood and family well-being resources.
Help Me Connect is a joint initiative between Minnesota's Departments of Education, Health and Human Services, and the Governor’s Children’s Cabinet.
What’s Included in Help Me ConnectHelp Me Connect includes resources and services that promote healthy prenatal and early childhood development, education, safety and well-being of children and families. It includes non-profits, for-profits (licensed by the state of Minnesota) and government agencies.
Help Me Connect's mission is to connect families with resources that support the diverse needs of children and families across the state of Minnesota, especially those experiencing racial, economic, and geographic disparities.
Collaborating with Tribal CommunitiesSince the beginning Help Me Connect partnered with Tribal Nations and American Indian communities. Tribal meetings were held and provided specific recommendations for resources to be included. Additionally, Tribal Nations will be included in ongoing community engagement sessions to review and recommend new resources.
Help Me Connect recognizes and supports that Tribal Nations are sovereign and self-governing, with distinct assets and needs.
FundingHelp Me Connect is made possible using federal funding, 93.434 - ESSA Preschool Development Grants Birth through Five. Its contents are solely the responsibility of the authors and do not necessarily represent the official views of the Office of Child Care, the Administration for Children and Families, or the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

As the job market is continually changing, we look to proactively prepare ourselves for whatever comes next. Whether it's new technology, evolving job markets, or unexpected career shifts, being prepared for the future is more important than ever.
In September we will focus on continuous learning, the power of mentorship, and strategies to adapt to whatever comes your way. We’ll discuss ways to future-proof your career, with tools and insights to stay relevant, resilient, and ready to help you stay ahead. Join us as we focus on empowering ourselves with the knowledge, skills, and strategies needed to navigate and thrive.
This month’s programs and experiences are presented in partnership with Robert Half, a long-standing partner and supporter of Dress for Success. Robert Half focuses on building happier workplaces by helping companies with their hiring needs, and job seekers with their job search. 


Thanks to Robert Half, we’re thrilled to provide the following opportunities:
  • A panel discussion on the power of mentorship – where women from Robert Half will share their stories and advice about discovering the value of career mentoring with guidance and tips for giving back. 
  • A workshop on navigating career transitions with tips and advice for keeping your skills sharp and staying competitive no matter what the future holds.
If you are looking for ways to best prepare yourself for whatever phase you are in your career journey, guidance and expertise from this month’s programming can help with your next steps.
