The National Nurse-Led Care Consortium (NNCC) has developed a publication on the background, value and benefits of Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) funded home visiting programs working in partnership with health centers. The publication outlines key steps and resources for building those partnerships. It also discusses two MIECHV approved models of implementation: Nurse-Family Partnership, a program utilizing specially educated nurses who visit parents or caregivers from early pregnancy through the child's second birthday, and Parents as Teachers (PAT), which supports families with young children through personal visits, group connections, child screening, and resource networks. Examples of successful partnerships between health centers and home visiting programs are provided.
