JBA Staff Set to Present at 2025 National Home Visiting Summit
JBA staff will again take part in Start Early’s National Home Visiting Summit to advance the home visiting field. On February 12, JBA will host two poster presentations. Tonya Bibbs, Amanda Eastern, and Eleanor Fisk will share findings from a survey of home visiting programs to understand their efforts to promote equity. Allison Meisch will join colleagues from EDC and Child Trends to discuss myths about implementing and evaluating innovations in home visiting programs.
On February 13, Mariel Sparr will present findings from the Supporting and Strengthening the Home Visiting Workforce project, which developed a self-report tool for home visiting supervisors to assess and enhance reflective supervision practices. The next day, Emily Heberlein, Jessica Bruning, and Nichole Sturmfels will join the Home Visiting Applied Research Collaborative’s panel on data sharing in home visiting research.
JBA will also be represented at the exhibitor expo by the National Home Visiting Resource Center, which we lead in partnership with the Urban Institute. Visit their table during breakfast, lunch, and breaks.
