Tools for Building Better Childhoods
April is Child Abuse Prevention Month. In recognition, we’re proud to have partnered with Social Current to develop and now roll out Building Better Childhoods: a set of new, easy-to-use resources to help organizations communicate about childhood adversity as a public, preventable, and solvable issue.
Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) Program
The MIECHV program is a federal grant to states, territories, and Tribes that supports evidence-based home visiting for families and children from prenatal period through kindergarten entry.
