Delaware’s home visiting and early childhood partners came together for a successful 3rd Quarterly Home Visiting Community Advisory Board (HV CAB) meeting to share updates, celebrate progress, and explore new ways to connect families with the support they need. Highlights included the upcoming evolution of the Delaware Family Support Hub into a more accessible, web-based resource featuring community resources, training opportunities, and events.
The Board also focused on using data to reach more families, including targeted outreach in Central Newark (Zone 9), and strengthening the connection between referrals and home visiting enrollment. Partners shared updates on expanded referral support, tangible resources for families, and increased capacity across programs. ABC Parenting has added 10 parent coaches and expanded statewide services, while Healthy Families Delaware, Parents as Teachers, and other programs reported available openings.
With new professional development opportunities, continued collaboration with DFS and community partners, and plans to incorporate family perspectives into statewide planning, there is plenty to look forward to. Together, Delaware’s home visiting community continues to strengthen connections, expand access, and make it easier for families to find the support they need to thrive.
