Opportunities to Maximize Home Visiting Benefits for Native Families Through Data and Collaboration

This brief describes the landscape of home visiting within American Indian and Alaska Native (AIAN) communities and provides a brief overview of the federal investment in home visiting for AIAN families through the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) Program, which includes dedicated funding for the Tribal Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (TMIECHV) Program. Then, drawing on data dashboards from MIECHV and TMIECHV, we describe three opportunities for federal investments to build on the benefits of home visiting for AIAN families.
