This timely resource analyzes home visits as a primary intervention
for at-risk families with infants and young children and details
innovative programs for home service delivery. Focusing on family

challenges to child development, the book presents practical
strategies for home visitors to address and prevent problems while
fostering an improved environment for raising children.
Contributors offer a realistic framework for planning, developing,
and training an effective home visitation workforce and tailoring
interventions to fit individual family dynamics. And the book's

evidence-based programs that support families raising children in
distressed neighborhoods. Among the featured topics: Home
visitation as a primary prevention tool for violence. Developmental
parenting home visiting to prevent violence. Supporting the

visiting child abuse prevention programs. Addressing psychosocial
