[Federal Law/ Program] Home Visitation [Authorization] Legislation required to implement this program is included in both the House and the Senate health care reform bills. [Overview] 
This proposed initiative would create a new mandatory Home Visitation program to support the establishment and expansion of evidence-based home visitation programs for low income families and pregnant women in states and territories. The initiative will primarily fund models that have been rigorously evaluated and shown to have positive effects on critical outcomes for children and families. At the same time, a portion of the funds will be used to support promising models requiring additional evaluation. Administered by the Administration for Children and Families at the Department of Health and Human Services. http://www.acf.hhs.gov/
