Enhancing and Evaluating Partners for a Healthy Baby Home Visiting Curricula for Early Head Start

Description:
University of North Carolina partnered with North Carolina Early Head Start (EHS) programs to evaluate a combined curriculum derived from the widely used Partners for a Healthy Baby and Learningames curricula. Specifically, the project focused on encouraging involvement of the EHS partners, gathering data for the final development of the 19-36 month components of the curriculum, ensuring high-quality implementation, and designing and conducting an evaluation of the combined curricula. Participants included 5 home visitors and 60 Early Head Start families each year. The proposed evaluation design was cross-sectional with a longitudinal follow-up and a pre/post-test design to measure changes in family functioning and child outcomes. The expected outcome of this study was the dissemination of critical information to programs searching for appropriate and effective materials for home visitors.
