On Friday, May 20, 2022, the Harvard Kennedy School Government Performance Lab led a discussion with practitioners from three jurisdictions that have expanded access to home visiting programs or similar supports about how they prioritize their outreach efforts to ensure these services reach the families who need them most.

Hosts from the Government Performance Lab included Grace Palmer, Project Leader, and Megan Toohey, Director of Children & Families.

Featured Speakers:

  • Kristine Campagna, Associate Director of Community, Health and Equity, Rhode Island Department of Health
  • Amy Malen, Assistant Deputy Director, Office of Community Services, Allegheny County Department of Human Services
  • Shalyn Bravens, Director of Family Connects and MIECHV, United Way for Greater Austin
