Each Tribal Home Visiting grantee funded from 2010 to 2017 was required to develop an evaluation of its program that was driven by community questions and met the ACF established criteria for rigor. This process optimized the likelihood that findings would be meaningful to the program and the local community and would also contribute to the general knowledge base about successful implementation of high-quality evidence-based home visiting services in AI/AN populations. For more information about the grantees’ evaluation plans, please see Grantee-Led Evaluations in the Tribal Maternal Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting Program: A Compilation of Grantee Evaluation Plan Profiles. This brief series tells the story of the Tribal Home Visiting Program grantees’ experience designing and implementing evaluation studies in their communities.
