Home visiting is an evidence-based model where a healthcare provider goes to a pregnant person’s home to offer support and education during and after pregnancy. Not every pregnant person in New Hampshire has access to home visits due to various barriers such as funding and geographic location.
Why It Matters
Home visiting helps parents navigate pregnancy and early childhood. It can help families spot developmental delays and improve parent’s mental health. Parents can receive resources, education, and support from home visiting.
By the Numbers
Our Impact
In 2023, New Futures championed Senate Bill 175, also known as the NH Momnibus. NH Momnibus accomplishes a lot of maternity health policies, including a commission to study universal home visits for newborns and young children.
