Healthy Beginnings at Home (HBAH) is a transitional housing program providing 24 months of support to pregnant women in Marion County who are experiencing homelessness or housing instability. In addition to being recipients of this service, participants are part of our evaluation efforts to show the impact of stable housing and case management support on maternal and infant health.
Implementation is based on Family Critical Time Intervention which is an evidence-based practice intervention for rapid rehousing and is informed by Human Rights Theory. This intervention has been adjusted to meet the unique needs of the pregnant women and their families in this program.
