Abstract	Children develop fastest in their earliest years, and the skills and abilities they develop in those years lay the foundation for their future success. Similarly, early adverse experiences can contribute to poor social, emotional, cognitive, behavioral, and health outcomes both in early childhood and later life. Children who grow up in families with lower incomes tend to be at greater risk of encountering adverse experiences that negatively affect their development. One approach that has helped parents and their young children is home visiting, which provides individually tailored support, resources, and information to expectant parents and families with young children. Many early childhood home visiting programs aim to support the healthy development of infants and toddlers, and work with families with low income, in particular, to help ensure their well-being. In 2010, Congress authorized the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) Program, which also appropriated funding for fiscal years 2010 through 2014. Subsequent laws extended funding for the program through fiscal year 2022. The initiation of the MIECHV Program began a major expansion of evidence-based home visiting programs for families living in communities that states identified as "at risk." The legislation authorizing MIECHV required an evaluation of MIECHV in its early years, which became the Mother and Infant Home Visiting Program Evaluation (MIHOPE). The overarching goal of MIHOPE is to learn whether families and children benefit from MIECHV-funded early childhood home visiting programs as they operated from 2012 through 2017. In addition, MIHOPE includes a cost analysis to estimate the cost of providing evidence-based home visiting to families. This report describes local programs' home visiting costs for the year after families begin receiving services and how those costs are allocated between meeting specific families' needs and other home visiting program activities. The analysis presented in this report has two main goals: (1) Examine the allocation of resources at MIECHV-funded programs in the MIHOPE cost analysis sample; and (2) Estimate the cost for each family served in MIHOPE and investigate how these costs differ across families, local programs, and evidence-based models.
