Home visiting resources for Indigenous peoples and communities

Tribal Home Visiting

Tribal MIECHV grantees can find more information on ACF’s Tribal Home Visiting page.

HomVEE assesses the evidence of effectiveness of models that could be relevant to Indigenous communities, including American Indian and Alaska Native (AIAN) families and children. View the Tribal home visiting report which summarizes the findings of HomVEE’s review of research on early childhood home visiting models that have been evaluated with Indigenous peoples and communities.

This page lists models, reviewed by HomVEE, that have been implemented with Indigenous peoples and communities. Use the filter options below to further refine the search to find models that are intentionally designed for implementation in Indigenous communities or that have been evaluated with Indigenous peoples, defined as samples that include at least 30 percent of study participants that identify as Indigenous. A complete list of models is also available via the full model search.

Frequenty Asked Questions

Are models on HomVEE’s website automatically eligible for Tribal MIECHV funding?

Tribal MIECHV grantees may select home visiting models that are either evidence-based (as determined by HomVEE) or that qualify as a promising approach. Model selection is designed to be a driven by the needs of a particular community, as determined by a needs and readiness assessment. For additional information about the Tribal MIECHV Program, see the ACF website.

Is there any research specific to Indigenous peoples and communities?

Yes. In addition to the main HomVEE review, HomVEE periodically updates a review of models that were implemented with Indigenous communities or included substantial proportions of Indigenous peoples (such as American Indian and Alaska Native families) in the study samples. The results of this review are presented in a report that can be accessed on the Home visiting resources for Indigenous peoples and communities page.
