We are pleased to announce an international online seminar series focused on the most recent results of randomized clinical trials of Nurse-Family Partnership conducted in varied contexts throughout the world. As you know, we are committed to thoroughly developing the clinical and programmatic foundations of NFP and grounding policy and practice in the results of randomized trials. None of this is easy, but the children and families we serve deserve programs that can make a difference in promoting their health, development and positive life chances. This symposium is a platform to explore these challenges and opportunities using NFP as a foundation for this discussion. Recording of each seminar will be made available below.
