Take Root Home Visitation
Partnership/Type: Department of Defense Military Community Advocacy
Status: Current Project
The Clearinghouse for Military Family Readiness at Penn State has partnered with the Department of Defense to develop Take Root Home Visitation (TRHV). TRHV is a manualized curriclum that was developed to meet the needs of home visitation professionals working with military families with infants and toddlers from birth to 3 years old who are at risk for child maltreatment. TRHV draws from research and practice in the fields of resilience, attachment, neuroscience, and social cognition to build a curriculum that engages families, builds trust, and supports positive parenting.
