A federal grant has been awarded to Virginia to expand a home visitation program for at-risk families that provides health-related instruction and other support services. Forty-two communities statewide have been identified as in need of the “Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting” project. And as Virginia Public Radio’s Anne Marie Morgan reports, the $6.2-million grant will help reach many more homes in both urban and rural locations.
