AI Contract Overview
The Office of Planning, Research and Evaluation (OPRE) under the Department of Health and Human Services is planning to offer funding for Reflective Supervision in Home Visiting Research Awards. These awards aim to support projects that utilize the Supervisory Practices in Reflective Supervision-Home Visiting (SuPRS-HV) measure to advance research and evaluation of reflective supervision within early childhood home visiting programs. Funded projects will be required to partner with home visiting programs, including at least one supported by the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting Program (MIECHV), to pursue activities such as improving the measurement of reflective supervision, investigating the impact of reflective supervision practices on various outcomes, developing practical tools for program improvement, or exploring variations in supervisory practices across different contexts or populations. The insights gained from the funded research are intended to inform policy, practice, and future research in early childhood home visiting. By enhancing understanding of reflective supervision, these awards seek to support better implementation and quality within home visiting programs, ultimately benefiting home visitors, families, and the relationships between them. The point of contact for this solicitation is Nicole Denmark, and additional details will be available on the official grants website starting from the posted date in April 2026.

Full Description
The Office of Planning, Research and Evaluation (OPRE) plans to solicit applications for Reflective Supervision in Home Visiting Research Awards. This funding opportunity will support projects that use the Supervisory Practices in Reflective Supervision-Home Visiting (SuPRS-HV) (https://acf.gov/opre/report/measure-manual-supervisor-practices-reflective-supervision-home-visiting-suprs-hv) measure to research and evaluate reflective supervision in early childhood home visiting. These awards will support partnerships with home visiting programs, including at least one funded by the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Program (MIECHV) to do one or more of the following: 1) Further how reflective supervision is measured (e.g., explore additional aspects of the validity not explored in the measure development, adapt the measure for supervisees, validate against observational measures); 2) Use SuPRS-HV to understand how reflective supervision practices may affect outcomes (e.g., for home visitors, for home visitor-family relationships, or for families); 3) Develop tools to help home visiting programs use SuPRS-HV to improve practice (e.g., for monitoring performance or quality improvement); and/or 4) Use SuPRS-HV to describe how reflective supervision practices vary (e.g., by communities, staff characteristics, populations served). Findings from these projects will inform early childhood home visiting policy, practice, or research and help people in the field better understand reflective supervision practices.
