National Home Visiting Week 2027: April 26-30, 2027

Home visiting deserves to be celebrated!

Welcome to National Home Visiting Week (NHVW), a yearly observance to celebrate and recognize home visitors and the positive impact they make on maternal and child health outcomes, families and communities across the country.

In 2025, the Institute for the Advancement of Family Support Professionals, an organization focused on strengthening home visiting and human service programs across the country, began this grassroots movement with non-profit partners and elected officials across the country.

Join us in celebrating the unique field of home visiting and the professionals who make it so special!

"[Home visitors] are critical support for families across the nation! Home visitors develop strong, trusting relationships with families to provide them with the information, resources, and support they need to thrive, directly in their homes."

HRSA: Health Resources and Services Administration
"[Home visitors] meet families where they are, sometimes during their most vulnerable moments, and they offer guidance without judgment, support without conditions, and compassion without end."

Alaska State Representative Alyse Galvin
“We have loved having a regular visit from an unbiased person who can bring a valuable outside perspective on our child’s development and our parenting practices based on research.”
