MIHOPE, the evaluation of the federal Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) program, is unique in its scale and in the number of research methods it will use to understand home visiting. It includes an impact analysis, a multi-level implementation analysis, and an economic analysis.
Listen to MIHOPE team lead Sharon Rowser explain the study method and how random assignment allows the researchers to look at what difference the home visiting programs make.
State administrators describe why they are involved in the study, staff describe their experience with the study, and national leaders share their thoughts on why MIHOPE will provide valuable insights on home visiting.
