High-quality home-visiting services for infants and young children can improve family relationships, advance school readiness, reduce child maltreatment, improve maternal-infant health outcomes, and increase family economic self-sufficiency. The American Academy of Pediatrics supports unwavering federal funding of state home-visiting initiatives, the expansion of evidence-based programs, and a robust, coordinated national evaluation designed to confirm best practices and cost-efficiency. Community home visiting is most effective as a component of a comprehensive early childhood system that actively includes and enhances a family-centered medical home.
高质量的婴幼儿家庭探访服务可以改善家庭关系，促进儿童入学准备，减少儿童虐待，改善母婴健康结果，并提高家庭经济自给自足能力。美国儿科学会支持坚定的联邦资金支持州家庭探访计划，扩大基于证据的项目，并进行强有力的协调全国评估，旨在确认最佳实践和成本效益。社区家庭探访作为全面儿童早期系统的一个组成部分最为有效，该系统积极纳入和加强以家庭为中心的医疗保健之家。
