Acknowledgments
The 2024 Home Visiting Yearbook was developed by the National Home Visiting Resource Center (NHVRC), a partnership of James Bell Associates and the Urban Institute. Support is provided by the Heising-Simons Foundation. The views expressed here do not necessarily reflect the views of the foundation.
A number of people contributed their time and expertise to the 2024 Yearbook, which was produced under the general direction of Allison Meisch of James Bell Associates and Heather Sandstrom of the Urban Institute. We acknowledge the contributions of other members of the NHVRC team, including Grace Atukpawu-Tipton, Soumita Bose, Erin Doyle, Jill Filene, Alexandra Joraanstad, Eden Phillips, Alavi Rashid, Erica Blue Roberts, Joelle Ruben, Mikaila Singleton, and Amanda Thomson. Dakota Bragato, Susan Higman, Loren Masters, Deisy Rodriguez, and Yuan Wang provided invaluable support for data quality assurance and analysis.
We also acknowledge the expert feedback and guidance provided by our Advisory Committee members: Shirley Adelstein, Moushumi Beltangady, Clinton Boyd, Jr., Deborah Daro, Karen Howard, Catriona Macdonald, Mary Mackrain, Kyle Peplinski, Lesley Schwartz, and Allison West. We are grateful to Malia Ramler at the Heising-Simons Foundation for her support.
Special thanks are due to the families, home visiting staff, and others who graciously shared their stories to help bring the data to life. We appreciate the efforts of the representatives from states, territories, and the District of Columbia who shared data, and representatives from the Administration for Children and Families who shared data on behalf of Tribal MIECHV grantees. We are also grateful for the representatives from home visiting models who shared their data and time with us. The 2024 Home Visiting Yearbook would not have been possible without their support.
We thank Threespot for digital design services and Kris Neurauter for her design support.
