Improving Maternal & Child Health

Home Visiting Grants

At Obici Healthcare Foundation, we recognize families thrive when they have access to the support and resources needed during pregnancy and a child’s earliest years. Home visiting programs play a vital role in reaching families where they are — in their homes and community. These voluntary programs offer trusted, evidence-based guidance to expectant parents and families with young children. By funding home visiting programs, we are investing in a model of care that has been shown to produce lasting benefits for children, caregivers, and the local community.

Home Visiting grants can provide multi-year funding to eligible organizations. These grants help fund:

• Staff salaries and benefits (including home visitors and supervisors)
• Staff training and professional development
• Travel for home visitors to participants’ homes (not for participants’ travel)
• Supplies and materials related to home visiting
• Technical assistance (e.g., evaluation, communications, quality improvement)
• Expansion of the local referral network
• Outreach, enrollment, and retention activities
• Staff time and travel to attend quarterly convenings hosted by the Foundation and/or its partners

Grants are awarded on a competitive basis to support multi-year partnerships with Home Visiting partners. There are no open funding opportunities currently.
