2023 Home Visiting Yearbook
The National Home Visiting Resource Center (NHVRC) has released its 2023 Home Visiting Yearbook, a nationwide and state-by-state look at early childhood home visiting. It builds on past NHVRC publications to present an up-to-date look at home visiting in action.
The publication presents 2022 data from evidence-based and emerging home visiting models, state agencies, and the Administration for Children and Families to highlight:
- Where programs operate, the families they serve, and the families who could benefit but are not being reached
- Profiles of states, models, and Indigenous-led organizations
- Services delivered by state awardees and tribal grantees of the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) Program
The 2023 Yearbook includes virtual and in-person home visiting data. It also includes maternal and child health indicator data to offer insight into family well-being and the potential need for services. These data are broken up by race and ethnicity to inform conversations about using home visiting to promote equity.
More than 270,000 families nationwide received home visiting services in 2022, over the course of more than 2.8 million home visits. In California, nearly 15,000 families were served in 2022, over the course of 144,000 home visits; more than half were virtual visits.
The Yearbook highlighted the work of the Welcome Baby program and included the following statistics:
