The Baby Monitor: A special edition on home visiting  

This special edition of The Baby Monitor, a Zero to Three Policy Network e-newsletter, focuses on home visiting as a method of supporting families during their child's first years of life.

Professionals have been familiar with home visiting services for some time, but only recently did home visiting gain national visibility.

The enactment of the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (health care reform) allocated new federal funds to expand evidence-based home visiting programs in states across the country. This exciting opportunity is on the fast track, and states must grapple with decisions about how to replicate high-quality programs, expand services, and maintain model fidelity.
