New HHS Study Finds Home Visiting Services Improve Family Wellbeing

The U.S. Health and Human Services (HHS), through the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) and Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), released new findings from the Mother and Infant Home Visiting Program Evaluation (MIHOPE) study.

MIHOPE study highlights the long-term benefits to children and families participating in federally funded, evidence-based home visiting services through the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) Program.

The results show that direct interactions between home visitors and families had statistically significant, long-term positive effects on maternal and family wellbeing outcomes by the time children reached kindergarten.

The positive outcomes included:

  • Improvements in families’ economic circumstances,
  • Reduced family conflict and violence,
  • Better maternal mental and behavioral health, and
  • Strengthened parent-child interactions.

Whitepaper: New Guide Tackles Connected Chronic Conditions Across Care Teams

About 1 in 3 U.S. adults have at least three risk factors for cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) syndrome – a condition rooted in the overlap of heart disease, kidney disease and metabolic disorders like Type 2 diabetes and obesity.

Yet care delivery remains fragmented, with primary and specialty teams often working in silos.

The American Heart Association’s CKM Health Implementation Guide offers a practical framework to help clinicians detect risk earlier, align workflows and deliver more person-centered care. No matter your specialty, this guide shows how to operationalize the science and design care around whole-patient needs.

Download to Learn:

  • How to stage and manage overlapping heart, kidney and metabolic conditions from prevention to progression,
  • What to add – and remove – from workflows: waist circumference, kidney screening, social risk, and
