Exploring remaining needs and opportunities for improvement in rural communities: A focus on Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) services

Description:

In this brief, we focus on the Human Services Programs in Rural Contexts study’s findings for the MIECHV Program. The findings in this brief are drawn primarily from interviews with rural human services providers from eight of 12 study sites that had MIECHV-funded programs as well as MIECHV administrative data and secondary survey sources. The findings illustrate the experiences of rural practitioners as they deliver MIECHV-funded home visiting services in their communities. It is worth noting that although some of these findings may also be present outside of rural areas, it was not the intent of the larger study to draw comparisons of human services delivery in rural versus non-rural areas.
