Prevention starts long before a crisis. It starts with policies that prioritize and invest in families, so they have support from the beginning. Every child deserves a safe, stable, and nurturing environment – and public policy plays a critical role in making that a reality.

As we approach the midterm elections, consider how the people we elect will shape investments in children, families, and prevention. Voting is one way each of us can help shape a future where every child has the opportunity to thrive.

Learn about the issues. Know where candidates stand. Make your voice heard.

The data doesn't just describe a problem. It points to a solution.

67% of children are flourishing. That's real progress. But it also means 1 in 3 still aren't, and that gap is exactly where we need to focus.

"When we put these numbers together with family stories, we begin to paint a picture of how families are really doing." — Bart J. Klika, PhD, Chief Research Officer

The PCA America Family Well-Being Indicators Dashboard was built on that idea: trusted, evidence-based data that turns urgency into action.

HRSA announced more than $525 million in FY 2026 funding through the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) Program to 56 states and jurisdictions -- the largest federal investment in the program's history!

MIECHV is a key funding source for Healthy Families America programs, supporting the relationships home visitors build with families to nurture healthy development and help parents reach their goals.

Across participating home visiting models, MIECHV provided more than 1 million home visits to over 158,000 parents and children in FY 2025. Behind those numbers are families, home visitors, and meaningful moments of connection.

These awards reflect funding under the 2022 MIECHV reauthorization and underscore the importance of sustaining this investment in the next reauthorization.

A vision is only as strong as the evidence behind it.

"The Blueprint gave us a roadmap for how to support families. The Dashboard gives us the evidence that shows us how we are moving the needle on family well-being in this country." — Jennifer Jones, Chief Strategy Officer

Together, they connect strategy to measurable progress, and measurable progress to real change for families.
