Abstract: The Administration for Children and Families, Office of Planning Research and Evaluation (OPRE), and Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) have launched a national evaluation called the Mother and Infant Home Visiting Program Evaluation (MIHOPE). The evaluation was authorized by a provision in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (PPACA) (P.L. 111-148), signed by the President on March 23, 2010. Using a mix of research methods, this evaluation will inform the federal government about the effectiveness of the newly established Maternal, Infant and Early Childhood Home-Visiting (MIECHV) program in its first few years of operation, and provide information to help states develop and strengthen home visiting programs in the future. By systematically estimating the effects of home visiting programs across a wide range of outcomes and studying the variation in how programs are implemented, MIHOPE will provide valuable information on the effects of these programs on parents and children. This includes investigating the effects of home visiting on maternal and child well-being, how those effects vary for different home visiting approaches, and how variations in program design and implementation influence program fidelity and impacts.
