MIHOPE CHECK-IN PROJECT

MIHOPE登记项目的目的是每年更新参加母婴家访计划评估（MIHOPE; http://www.acf.hhs.gov/programs/opre/research/project/maternal-infant-and-early-childhood-home-visiting-evaluation-mihope）的家庭的联系信息。MIHOPE正在对15个月大的母亲、婴儿和幼儿家访（MIECHV）项目参与者的儿童和家庭结果进行检查。先前对家访项目的研究也发现，当孩子年龄更大（即学龄前、学龄、青少年等）时，对孩子和家庭结果的影响。为了确保能够在未来的后续研究中检查MIECHV计划的长期影响，必须为研究参与者保留最新的联系信息。除了维护MIHOPE参与者的当前联系信息外，MIHOPE Check-In项目还可能管理一项简短的调查，以收集关于一小部分家庭和儿童结果的信息，并可能收集同意书，以便将来分析行政数据。

The purpose of the MIHOPE Check-In project is to annually update contact information for families who participated in the Mother and Infant Home Visiting Program Evaluation (MIHOPE; http://www.acf.hhs.gov/programs/opre/research/project/maternal-infant-and-early-childhood-home-visiting-evaluation-mihope). MIHOPE is examining child and family outcomes for participants in the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) program when the child is 15 months old. Previous research on home visiting programs has also found impacts on child and family outcomes when the children are even older (i.e., preschool age, school age, teenagers, etc.). To ensure that it is possible to examine the long-term impacts of the MIECHV program with future follow-up studies, up-to-date contact information must be maintained for study participants. In addition to maintaining current contact information for MIHOPE participants, the MIHOPE Check-In project may also administer a brief survey to gather information on a small set of family and child outcomes, and may collect consent forms to allow for future analysis of administrative data.
