The Tribal Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) Grant Program awards five-year cooperative agreements that support evidence-based home visiting services for American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) families and children. Eligible applicants are federally recognized Indian tribes (or consortia of Indian tribes), tribal organizations, or urban Indian organizations. Grant recipients are expected to develop, implement, sustain, or expand an evidence-based home visiting program serving AI/AN families who are expecting a new baby or who have young children aged birth to kindergarten entry. The goals of the Tribal MIECHV program are to 1) support the development of happy, healthy, and successful AIAN children and families through home visiting services that address critical maternal and child health, development, early learning, family support, and child abuse and neglect prevention needs; 2) implement high-quality, evidence-based home visiting programs in AIAN communities; 3) continue to build the evidence base around home visiting interventions with Native populations; and 4) support coordination among early childhood programs serving AI/AN families through the development of early childhood systems. Awards will help recipients meet the following objectives: 1) provide high-quality, evidence-based home visiting services to AI/AN families and children; 2) use performance measurement and continuous quality improvement to track performance and improve program implementation; 3) develop early childhood systems; and 4) participate in research and evaluation to build evidence around home visiting in tribal communities. The Tribal MIECHV program is administered by the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) Office of Early Childhood Development (ECD), in collaboration with the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA).
