On behalf of the National Home Visiting Coalition, we invite all state and local stakeholders to sign a letter asking Congress to prioritize MIECHV funding and needed flexibilities for home visitors during the coronavirus crisis. We anticipate that Congress will be working on additional emergency funding and legislation in the coming days and weeks, and we believe resources for home visiting should be included.
Below is a form to sign on to the letter, and the deadline to sign on is Monday, April 6. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns.
Thank you for all the work you do on the ground every day in support of children and families.
Sincerely,
The State and Local Engagement Committee Co-Chairs
