Children from low-income families are more likely than those from higher income families to have poor social, emotional, cognitive, behavioral, and health outcomes. One approach that has helped parents and their young children is home visiting, which provides information, resources, and support to expectant parents and families with young children. This brief summarizes evidence from existing studies on the impact of early childhood home visiting on children 5 and older for four national models of home visiting. The primary research questions include:(1) What are the effects of home visiting programs for families as children get older?; (2) How do the monetary benefits of home visiting compare with their costs?; and (3) How do the monetary benefits of home visiting compare with their costs?
