Affordable Care Act Tribal Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting Program Overview Moushumi Beltangady Administration for Children and Families U.S. Department of Health and Human Services National Tribal Public Health Summit Tulsa, Oklahoma May 31, 2012

Affordable Care Act Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting Program  Section 2951 of the Affordable Care Act of 2010 (P.L ) – March 23, 2010  Amends Title V of the Social Security Act to add Section 511: Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting Programs  $1.5 billion in mandatory funding over 5 years ◦ $100 m FY 2010 ◦ $250 m FY 2011 ◦ $350 m FY 2012 ◦ $400 m FY 2013 and FY 2014  Grants to States and Jurisdictions (with 3 percent set-aside for grants to Tribes, Tribal Organizations, and Urban Indian Organizations and 3 percent set-aside for research, evaluation, and TA)  Requirement for collaborative implementation by HRSA MCHB and ACF

Affordable Care Act MIECHV Program Legislation Purposes: (1)To strengthen and improve the programs and activities carried out under Title V of the Social Security Act; (2)To improve coordination of services for at- risk communities; and (3)To identify and provide comprehensive home visiting services to improve outcomes for families who reside in at-risk communities

Affordable Care Act MIECHV Program Through high-quality, “evidence-based” home visiting programs targeted to pregnant women, expectant fathers, and parents and primary caregivers of children aged birth to kindergarten entry in at-risk communities identified through a needs assessment, promote: Improvements in maternal and prenatal health, infant health, and child health and development; Increased school readiness; Reductions in the incidence of child maltreatment; Improved parenting related to child development outcomes; Improved family socio-economic status; Greater coordination of referrals to community resources and supports; and Reductions in crime and domestic violence.

Evidence-Based Policy Initiative Requires State MIECHV grantees to implement evidence-based home visiting models – HHS conducted a systematic review of the evidence of effectiveness, known as Home Visiting Evidence of Effectiveness (HomVEE): results at Allows for implementation of promising strategies – Up to 25% of funding can be used to fund “promising and new approaches” that would be rigorously evaluated Nine models currently meet “evidence-based criteria” for the State MIECHV program

Benchmark Requirement The legislation requires that grantees establish quantifiable, measurable 3- and 5-year benchmarks for demonstrating that the program results in measurable improvements for eligible families participating in the program in each of the following benchmark areas: 1.Improved maternal and newborn health 2.Prevention of child injuries, child abuse, neglect, or maltreatment, and reduction of emergency department visits 3.Improvement in school readiness and achievement 4.Reduction in crime or domestic violence 5.Improvements in family economic self-sufficiency 6.Improvements in the coordination and referrals for other community resources and supports

Priority Populations for MIECHV Program  Families in at-risk communities identified through a needs assessment  Low-income families  Pregnant women under age 21  Families with a history of child abuse or neglect  Families with a history of substance abuse  Families that have users of tobacco in the home  Families with children with low student achievement  Families with children with developmental delays or disabilities  Families with individuals who are serving or have served in the Armed Forces, including those with multiple deployments

Evidence-Based Policy and Tribal Home Visiting ACF conducted a review of home visiting interventions with Native communities (Tribal HomVEE) NO home visiting models implemented in tribal communities meet the “evidence-based” criteria for the State MIECHV program Tribal HV grantees may choose a PROMISING APPROACH that is: Grounded in relevant empirical work Developed by or in partnership with a national organization or university To be evaluated through rigorous research to determine its effectiveness Grantees may choose an existing evidence-based model and adapt to community needs, or develop a local innovation to meet needs

Models Selected by Grantees Cohort 1 – Parents as Teachers (8) – Nurse-Family Partnership (3) – Parent-Child Assistance Program (1) – Family Spirit (1)

Evidence-Based Policy and Tribal Home Visiting Focus on FIT between model and community Recognition of need for adaptation of evidence- based models to culture and context Importance of grounding in implementation science (what we know about implementing evidence-based models) – Well-trained, competent staff – High quality reflective supervision – Strong organizational capacity – Strong community capacity for referral – Monitoring fidelity of implementation – Participant recruitment and retention plan

Rigorous Research and Evaluation Requirement All grantees are required to conduct rigorous research and evaluation activities Goal is to inform practice and build the evidence base of effective home visiting interventions with Native populations Research and Evaluation activities could include: – Examining effectiveness of home visiting models in serving Native populations – Examining effectiveness of adaptations of home visiting models for Tribal communities – Questions regarding implementation or infrastructure necessary to support implementation of home visiting programs in Tribal communities
