Home Visiting Research and Development Platform: This announcement solicits applications for the Home Visiting Research and Development (RandD) Platform.  The purpose of this competition is to support a transdisciplinary research network for scientific collaboration and infrastructure building for innovative home visiting research.  The research network will produce meaningful impacts that will significantly extend the evidence-base of home visiting through research that is informed by and reflects the principles of:  1) co-creation; 2) specificity and precision; 3) rapid-cycle and iterative methods; 4) targeting to identify who benefits most; 5) use of an “active ingredients” approach by identifying the components of interventions that lead to improved outcomes, and; 6) innovation beyond interventions and into systems (See Appendix for a glossary of selected terms).[1] [1] Adapted from the Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University (2016).  From Best Practices to Breakthrough Impacts: A Science-Based Approach to Building a More Promising Future for Young Children and Families.  Retrieved from http://developingchild.harvard.edu/.
