Abstract: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) seeks approval to continue to conduct a long-term follow-up of the families participating in the Mother and Infant Home Visiting Program Evaluation (MIHOPE). The MIHOPE study enrolled eligible mothers in 2012 (see B2: Target Population for eligibility criteria) and has followed up with the recruited sample when the MIHOPE child was 15 months, 2.5 years old, and 3.5 years old. The ongoing long-term follow-up study is following up with families while the MIHOPE child is in kindergarten. Completing this information collection, which began prior to and was delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic, is necessary for understanding the effectiveness of the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting program (MIECHV) in its first few years of operation and for helping states and practitioners develop and strengthen home visiting programs in the future (see Supporting Statement B.1 Objectives).
