About PTHV Week
Home visits between school staff and families are a proven family engagement strategy that improves student achievement, attendance, and behavior. We launched the first national PTHV Week in 2022 to kick off the 25th Anniversary of the Parent Teacher Home Visits organization, and by popular demand, we’re bringing it back for its second year with expanded focus and more ways to participate.
The goals of PTHV Week are to:
- Celebrate educators and families who prioritize building relationships of trust
- Generate awareness and support for PTHV locally and nationally
- Conduct as many home visits as possible during the week
- Evaluate and share the impact of PTHV week locally and nationally

Evaluation is a valuable tool for leaders looking to strengthen, sustain, and grow a program or practice and, ultimately, improve outcomes for the students, families, and educators they serve. As such, evaluation should be a key component of local and national PTHV Week celebrations.
As you move toward the planning and implementation
of your school or district’s Parent Teacher Home Visits
Week, you’ll need a communications plan to help guide your way to success. A good communications plan will help build excitement and anticipation around PTHV Week. It will help you and your team engage with important audiences before, during, and after the event. It will help keep your team members acting on one accord to avoid some of the common hiccups of event planning, and it will point the way toward the strategies and tactics needed to sustain and grow your home visit practice.
Here’s a special memento to capture the hopes and dreams you discover during the home visits you conduct during national PTHV Week. A Hopes and Dreams Certificate! Home visiting educators can download copies of this certificate to present during home visits conducted during PTHV Week and beyond. This blog post contains additional ideas for how to use the certificate.
PTHV advances student success and school improvement by leveraging relationships, research, and a national network of partners to advance evidence-based practices in relational home visits within a comprehensive family engagement strategy.
