The demonstration project shall be developed in consultation with the Department of Children and Families and the Department of Health.

b. The project shall be modeled on home visitation programs currently administered by the Department of Children and Families, the Department of Health, and the Division of Family Development in the Department of Human Services.

c. The project shall be implemented in stages, prioritizing expansion of services in counties with the highest number of births to eligible families and where current home visitation programs provide services to less than 10 percent of the eligible population.
