This brief summarizes key findings related to developing, tailoring and implementing early childhood home visiting models with tribal populations. It is intended for early childhood home visiting model program administrators and model developers, but may be useful to other audiences interested in home visiting in tribal communities. The brief draws on results from HomVEE’s review of research with tribal populations that included research published through September 2018.

This brief summarizes findings on designing and conducting early childhood home visiting evaluations in tribal communities and the effectiveness of the models examined for the HomVEE review.

Home visiting services geared toward pregnant women and families with young children offer an opportunity to intervene and support mothers at risk for intimate partner violence (IPV). In theory, effective services might reduce the incidence of IPV and thereby reduce the likelihood that children witness family violence. However, we know very little about the effectiveness of home visiting in reducing IPV outcomes.

This executive summary and brief present the latest updates (December 2019) to the Home Visiting Evidence of Effectiveness (HomVEE) review of home visiting program models that serve families with pregnant women and children from birth to age five. The executive summary provides an overview of the review process, a summary of the results, and a link to the HomVEE website for more detailed information...

This year’s Home Visiting Evidence of Effectiveness (HomVEE) review of home visiting models covered six program models: one new model and five previously reviewed models. The one new model, the Parent-Child Assistance Program, and one previously reviewed model, Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-Up, do not meet U.S. Department of Health and Human Services criteria for an evidence-based program model. HomVEE also updated reviews of four other previously reviewed models...
