Dr. David Willis sat at a roundtable discussion hosted by Children’s Trust and shared his national perspective on the home visiting program with five local implementing agencies in South Carolina. As the director of the Home Visiting and Early Childhood Systems for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Willis welcomed the opportunity to discuss how the Maternal, Infant and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) program is working with a group of providers in the field. He spoke of the essential work being done for families, mothers and new babies to help them reach their full potential in areas of health, development and early learning. He noted the support for the home visiting program and the positive viewpoint of it nationally from multiple stakeholders.
