Maternal Infant and Early Childhood Home Visiting Evaluation
Project Description:
The goals of the evaluation are to study, analyze and evaluate:
1. the fidelity of the initiatives implementation of the Healthy Families America (HFA) model of home visiting;
2. the effect on service delivery of adding leadership training to implementation of the model; and
3. the effect of fidelity and other implementation drivers on the outcomes of families served by the initiative.
The UNH Evaluation Team used an implementation science framework to guide the development of the research and evaluation questions that will be investigated to achieve these goals. These questions have been organized into three interrelated studies, each with a set of questions to be answered and hypotheses to be investigated.
