#MIECHV one of several health programs still waiting to be reauthorized over 100 days after deadline despite bipartisan support #homevisitingworks https://t.co/nGud3pV0WG

[First Five Years Fund @firstfiveyears]

REMEMBER: In addition to #CHIP, Congressional authorization for #MIECHV expired in Sept. Voluntary #homevisiting programs help parents w/ limited support & resources learn how to be their new baby’s best teacher. This bipartisan program SAVES LIVES and must be reauthorized soon.

A study of low-income women utilizing #homevisiting services in Wisconsin found that ACEs scores varied by race and ethnicity.

A great example of the importance of examining the intersection of race/ethnicity and socio-economic status.
