Overview

Mission

To improve the health of mothers, babies and families through statewide advocacy and initiatives that support local communities and healthy start coalitions.

What it reported doing in 2024

The federal maternal, infant and early childhood home visiting (miechv) program was implemented with the goal of improving health and developmental outcomes for at-risk children through evidence-based home visiting programs. Eighteen local projects are implementing three models in 36 high-need communities across Florida aimed at equipping parents and other caregivers with the knowledge, skills, and tools they need to assist their children in being healthy, safe, and ready to succeed in school. These models were selected by the communities based on local needs, gaps in services and resources. The Florida miechv program is funded by a grant from the u.s. Department of health and human services and health resources and services administration (hrsa).

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 95% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.

The verdict
