Our Programmatic Assistance for Tribal Home Visiting (PATH) team supports Tribal Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting grantees by increasing their capacity to implement high-quality home visiting programs within tribal communities and develop integrated early childhood systems serving American Indian and Alaska Native families.
Technical assistance to Tribal Home Visiting (THV) grantees is delivered through a relationship-based approach aimed at meeting grantees wherever they are in program development and supporting them in addressing challenges, improving performance and enhancing their home visiting program delivery. The development of relationships with grantees and all partners across the landscape of THV work is foundational.
