The ACA MIECHV formula grant program is designed to: (1) strengthen and improve the programs and activities carried out under Title V; (2) improve coordination of services for at- risk communities; and (3) identify and provide comprehensive services to improve outcomes for families who reside in at-risk communities. The legislation reserves the majority of funding for one or more evidence-based home visiting models. In addition, the legislation supports continued innovation by allowing up to 25 percent of funding to support promising approaches that do not yet qualify as evidence-based models.
