Abstract:
The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), in collaboration with the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), seeks approval to collect information from staff in home visiting programs receiving funding through the federal Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) program. ACF is interested in collecting information about the state of the home visiting workforce, career trajectories of home visitors, and strategies for building a pipeline of highly-qualified home visitors and supervisors. A highly-qualified home visiting workforce is a critical component of ensuring that home visiting programs achieve desired outcomes, but little is known about the current state of the workforce—why they enter home visiting and why they leave—and the type of professional development that supports them. The proposed study will provide important information on these topics and inform the systems that are required for cultivating the most effective workforce. Specifically, through the proposed information collection, the researchers will obtain quantitative and qualitative information about the characteristics, qualifications, and career trajectories of home visiting staff, as well as the state of the professional development system that supports home visitors. The study will include a national survey of the MIECHV workforce, case studies of eight distinct sites that vary in terms of geography, population demographics, labor markets, and home visiting program offerings, as well as interviews with home visiting training and technical assistance experts. The survey will collect data from program managers, supervisors, and home visitors; the case studies will include in-depth interviews with home visiting program managers and supervisors, and focus groups with home visitors.
