(a) “At risk” means families who experience multiple stress factors, and who are more likely than the general population to have adverse health, social, and economic outcomes.
(b) “Home visit” means a strategy of service delivery in which specially trained professional or paraprofessional personnel provide services in the client’s home. These personnel typically make contact with at-risk families during pregnancy or at childbirth and continue contact with the client in the parent’s home for between two and five years with the purpose of providing information and family support services.
(c) “Family support services” means any services intended to improve parent-child interaction, aid families to become more self-sufficient, or reduce family stress. These services include help with goal setting, information about parent-child interaction, information about and help in accessing other health and social services, and development of problem-solving skills.
