Public Health Fund (1175)
DISCUSSION:
The California Home Visiting Project (CHVP), Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV), State General Fund (SGF) Expansion allocation #22b-12 was awarded on March 20, 2023, from California Department of Public Health, and is disbursed through Nurse-Family Partnership Program until it’s termination on June 30th, 2023. The SGF Expansion allocation is additional funding for the CHVP program and has a long-term goal of increasing the number of families participating in CHVP supported evidence models. This is a newly awarded allocation and was not anticipated so it requires a supplemental budget in fund 1175, budget unit 421, California Home Visiting Program.
Nurse Family Partnership is an evidence-based home visitation program which allows first-time, low-income mothers to receive home visits from a Public Health Nurse. The California Home Visiting Program in connection with the Nurse-Family Partnership Program has positive impacts on child and maternal health, rates of child abuse and neglect, long-term birth rates, rates of incarceration, educational success, maternal employment, and parental capacity.
